Charnwood Forest Brick Ltd is a component of Michelmersh Brick Holdings PLC. The Company produced approximately 3 million facing bricks and special shaped bricks per annum from its manufacturing base at Shepshed, near Loughborough. Hand made facing bricks are here being manufactured and placed on rail trollies to go to the dryer before firing.

Brick production ended here in 2023 and the works then concentrated on Hathern Terracotta wares & FabSpeed pre-fabricated brick components. The remaining business has now been sold to Shaws of Darwen and the works is to be closed.
