Neil Brittlebank, 78, from East Ardsley in Yorkshire, who collects bricks, is featured in September. The retired mine safety worker began his unique collection in 1990 when he heard Lofthouse colliery, where he had worked for three decades, was being demolished and he was given some of the bricks. Now he has more than 1,000 and constantly hunts for more at demolition sites and in abandoned buildings. |
