17/07/1828 – Perthshire Courier. The subscriber has got a considerable quantity at the Perth Brickfield on the side of the Glasgow Road, immediately beyond County Place, which he is to sell on moderate terms. Orders will be received at the works. Those wishing flue covers, or a particular size of a brick, will please give immediate notice. The subscriber begs to mention, having always a number of excellent bricklayers employed, he will be happy to contract with gentlemen for building brick walls or any other work in that department. James Thomson. Perth Brickfield 09/07/1828. (Note – SBH – I am not sure if the Perth Brickfield was located exactly where the later Perth Brick and Tile Works were situated. Certainly, both appear to be situated off Glasgow Road.)
