Ruabon Brick

Ruabon brick is used all over Chester, and has a distinctive red appearance. The brick is glazed, and therefore doesn't allow water to seep in and damage the brick, but that also made it more expensive, so some private houses have the more expensive Ruabon on the front, for show, and something cheaper at the back. Sadly the company that made them no longer does so, but they still make quarry tiles of a very high quality. You can read about the manufacture here: http://www.ruabonsales.co.uk/company-history.htm
