Skares Brick Works were built by the National Coal Board during 1954-5. The works used the material from the local bings to make common bricks marked NCB SKARES. In 1969 the works were taken over by the Scottish Brick Corporation and made bricks marked SBC. The BBC made an educational film at Skares.
