Two extractions pits of the former Dalditch Brick Works of post-medieval to modern date are visible as earthwork pits on aerial photographs of 1946 and on digital images derived from LiDAR data captured between 1998-2012, within Dalditch Common. The extraction pits, in addition to a range of structures of the former brick works are depicted on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map of between the 1880’s-90’s. The former extraction pits are both irregular in shape, with that to the south measuring approximately 107m in length and that to the immediate north approximately 53m in length. The extraction pits are partly visible on aerial photographs of 1946, although after this date the site becomes overgrown with a thick coverage of trees, although both remain visible on digital images derived from LiDAR data captured between 1998-2012. There was no clear evidence of other structures or earthwork features associated with the brick works on aerial photographs or digital images made available to the survey.
