Worral’s Directory of 1875 cites the Woodside Brick Co, Cwmbran, proprietor Hy. B Sketch (see “Sketch”). Kelly’s for 1906 lists the company, the last such listing for it. The 1886 OS map shows both a disused brickworks and the "Woodside Brick & Tile Co on the western side of the Mon-Brec Canal by Woodside Road. The 1922 OS map shows both only brick works to the west of the canal, as disused, but a new brick works is shown on land a playing field today, at the junction of the canal/Maendy Way, behind Greenhill Way, Cwmbran. Kelly's for 1914 lists the Standard Brick Co as being at the Woodside site. The Woodside works are believed to have closed by 1926.
