CLAY INDUSTRIES.—We have in earlier pages of this work spoken of some of
these. There are still the White Brick-works of the Madeley Wood
Company, near Ironbridge; the red brick-works of the same company at
Blissers Hill; the clay works of W. O. Foster, Esq., at the Court; and
those of Messrs. George Legge & Son at Madeley Wood and the Woodlands;
works which from the excellence of their varied productions, no less than
from the number of persons employed, are of considerable importance to
the district.
