GAS MAIN BELOW

            Kidwelly Brick Works to the north of Kidwelly station was opened c.1858 by William Edwards of Swansea. This site ceased operation in c.1903. A new works was built to the south of of the railway station by Alderman Daniel Stephens which opened in 1903. Stephens worked silica from Mynydd-y-Garreg and this was brought into the works via train. Up to 1927 the firm was known as Stephens & Co, but later as Beynon Davies Civils Ltd. 

These photographs, taken in March 2017, showcase the building as it stands today. 

Inspiration for the framing of the shots came from the 1975 New Topographics exhibition.
