The history of Smeed Dean bricks

Smeed Dean bricks have been used extensively throughout London and the South of England for two centuries. After acquiring a smallholding and brickworks in Sittingbourne Kent, George Smeed (1812-1881) collected town ash and clinker from the fire grates of Victorian London and mixed it with local chalk and brick earth to create the original London Stock bricks.

The popularity of Smeed Dean bricks

The appeal of Smeed Dean yellow stock bricks remains as popular as ever. Their distinctive aesthetics and suitability for the local vernacular make them ideal for a wide range of projects from new build housing, commercial projects to renovation work. And it’s not just for traditional style projects, Smeed Dean products have been used in a whole host of modern and contemporary schemes over the past few years.

Discover the Smeed Dean brick range

The Smeed Dean range provides extensive flexibility to accommodate your design requirements and aesthetic preferences, from the trademark black spotting on the London Yellow Stock to the mature aged effect of the Smeed Dean Weathered Yellow and our extensive offering of reclaimed style bricks.

We also offer reclaimed styled bricks that we produce using a process known as ‘tumbling’ that we do on site at Smeed Dean to create the look of reclaimed bricks. These “tumbled” bricks have all the quality assurance you would expect from new bricks but are a good match for the look of reclaimed bricks. We can even add a mortar coating or paint to the face of the bricks to add to the authenticity of the look.
