1882 Cefn-mawr The Pen-y-bont Brick & Tile Works of James Coster Edwards (1828-96) was established in 1865. J. C. Edwards instigated the annual Edwards Terracotta Competition in 1880, to promote the use of terracotta in architectural design, and several prizewinning entries appeared in the firm’s 1890 catalogue. In 1882 he built a block of four model cottages near the entrance of the Pen-y-bont Works; they were designed by George Canning Richardson, head of J. C. Edwards’ design department, and acted as advertisements for the firm’s products. The occupants were the works managers of the terracotta, encaustic tile, blue brick and roofing tile departments.50 Along with terracotta blocks lying amidst the overgrown ruins, these cottages and a few office buildings (on the east side of the B5605, opposite Newbridge) are all that remain of the vast works, which finally ceased to function in 1961.
