Ascot Brick Works

The industrial complex features multiple brick kilns and tall chimney stacks situated on Grandstand Road opposite the Ascot Racecourse.

The facility began as pottery works in 1910 under Piercy and Pitman before H L Brisbane & Co acquired it in 1930 and expanded operations.

The brickworks represents Western Australia's manufacturing heritage through its preserved industrial structures and production methods from the early 20th century.

The site underwent conservation works in 2022 under the McGowan Government to preserve the heritage-listed kilns and chimney stacks.

The facility operated two original kilns fired by wood and coal, later expanding with additional kilns built by Ernie Banks in 1934.
