[2] In 1899 the Exeter Brick and Tile Company built a factory on land that formerly belonged to the priory.

The factory was capable of making 100,000 bricks each week, taking advantage of a nearby band of red clay which is particularly well-suited to such use.

Polsloe Road follows the line of an Iron Age ridgeway track that ran from the River Exe towards Stoke Hill.
