While the brickyard is currently closed, you can find the brickmakers throughout the Historic Area treating and preserving existing buildings, burning lime, and beginning to build their new site near the Carpenter’s Yard. As you tour the town, keep an eye out for these experts, and feel free to stop and ask about their projects. We look forward to opening the brickyard again at its new location.
