Gloster boys in Bedford Prison 1851 (General)
I remember Brick pits and kilns in Bedfordshire, and quarrying around Leighton Buzzard.
I guess besides the clay there is some Sandstone and Limestone and chalk and flint to be extracted....
and then there are the Cotswold ag.labs who may have wandered east :-)
work is work to a Gloster boy !
