Found in Larbert.
The manufacturer of this brick is unknown.
The find location would suggest Scottish origins.
The brick was found in a stacked pile in a garden. It was the only one of its kind among other bricks all marked Glenboig, Castlecary or Thistle.
I have no doubt it is from the same stable as one of the above – but which one.
