Gonville Cream Multi — 65mm Buff Multi Handmade Textured Stock Brick

Why choose the Gonville Cream Multi:

The Gonville Cream Multi is well suited to new residential developments seeking a traditional vernacular aesthetic; extensions to Georgian, Victorian, or Edwardian properties in the south-east where buff stock brickwork is the dominant local material.

Buff bricks have a long and distinctive history in the south-east of England, where the London Stock Brick fired from the distinctive mixture of clay, chalk, and ash found in the Thames estuary that defined the character of Georgian and Victorian London. Its pale, warm colouring appeared on terraces, warehouses, and civic buildings across the capital, and remains one of the most replicated and referenced brick aesthetics in UK architecture. The Gonville Cream Multi draws on this tradition, offering specifiers a handmade textured buff multi brick that complements and extends the visual language of period stock brickwork whether on a new-build development in the Home Counties or a sensitive extension to a Victorian property in London.
