The Mellow Ashridge Stock Brick is a traditionally styled 65mm facing brick, well-known for its warm red multi-tonal appearance and subtle sand-faced texture. Made from high-quality clay using a stock manufacturing method, this brick features a frogged design and delivers both visual character and reliable performance.
Its mellow red colour, combined with soft variations in tone, creates a natural, aged look that works beautifully in both period restorations and modern builds with traditional influences. The gentle surface texture adds depth without being overly rough, giving the brick a handcrafted aesthetic while maintaining consistent dimensions for efficient laying.
Structurally, the Mellow Ashridge Stock Brick offers a compressive strength of around 15 N/mm² and a water absorption rate of approximately 13%, making it suitable for exterior applications in a variety of weather conditions. It has good frost resistance and performs well over time with minimal maintenance. With a density of around 1700 kg/m³, it also contributes to thermal efficiency and acoustic comfort.
This brick is ideal for use on full building facades, garden and boundary walls, extensions, and decorative features. It pairs naturally with timber, stone, or lighter-coloured materials, adding warmth and texture to the overall design. To ensure a consistent finish, especially on larger projects, it’s recommended to mix bricks from multiple packs to distribute colour variation evenly.
In summary, the Mellow Ashridge Stock Brick combines traditional charm with dependable build quality, making it a versatile and enduring choice for architects, builders, and homeowners seeking a warm, classic brick finish.
