Brick Kiln, Mount Locust, Milepost 15.5
Transcript
In front of you, behind this sign, is a small clearing with a few bricks scattered here and there. To your right, the path leads back towards the Ferguson-Chamberlain Family cemetery. To your left, the path continues through the wooded area leading towards a large open field. The text on the wayside reads:
Brick Kiln
Enslaved people made bricks in a kiln for constructing building foundations, chimneys, and pathways that you see today. Can you spot the brick fragments that mark the location of the kiln?
The background of the exhibit is a color photo of an old brick kiln. At the angle the photo is taken, you can see inside an oven which is filled with ash.
