Condition grade 6/10 (B-grade). Assessed by the seller at listing; figures below relate to this specific lot of 600 bricks.

About this lot

Genuine ironclad Accrington reds. Highly sought after for matching Victorian and Edwardian extensions across the North. Located in Leeds — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Direct from Leeds Urban Reclamation, a demolition operating out of Leeds; live for 8 days.

This is exactly the kind of material that typically ends up in a skip costing the seller money; buying it diverts it back into a build. It is graded down on appearance alone; structurally and functionally it performs as A-grade.

Questions about this lot

How many bricks do I need per square metre?+

Standard UK bricks lay at ~60/m² in a single skin with 10mm joints. This lot (600 bricks) is best confirmed against your wall area plus a 5% cutting allowance.

Are reclaimed bricks frost resistant?+

Bricks that have survived decades outdoors in Leeds have effectively passed the longest freeze-thaw test there is. We still recommend F2-rated units for exposed copings and below-DPC work.

Can I get a sample before buying?+

Yes — the seller (Leeds Urban Reclamation) will set aside sample units for inspection at the Leeds yard before you commit to the full quantity.
