Lord's Pavillion

[Lurcher100]

Morning all,
Watching the cricket and looking at the facade of the pavilion I'm wondering, is there a lot of terracotta in the construction?

Rebuilt in 1890, Lurcher. That would suggest either London red "stock" bricks from local clay, or terra cotta bricks.

Since it was probably quite a prestigious project, I imagine they used the terra cotta ones, brought in from other parts of the country where the red clay could be found.

Thank you, The Builder, was wondering as it's very ornate. ( Ex Brickie)
