Bruno Clayworks "T" Brick
Sample of Bruno Clayworks "T" bricks, manufactured at the old clayworks located 4 km west of Bruno, SK. The clayworks operated between 1905-1960s, and produced a unique sideways "T" shape brick that interlocked when stacked with each row rotated 180º to the previous. The bricks photographed were removed during a room renovation within the 1919 portion of the former St. Ursula's Academy / Ursulines of Bruno Convent (now St. Therese Institute of Faith and Mission).
