History

Brickyard Plantation also boasts a piece of Mount Pleasant’s and Charleston’s past. Many of the bricks you see in colonial Charleston homes and sidewalks were made here by the kilns that once fired at the old brickyard. This area was once a fully functional brickyard for colonial Charleston and outlying areas. The famous Boone Hall Plantation was built with bricks made from the unique clay surrounding these historic grounds.

The tract of land was once part of the Boone Hall Plantation. The brickyard operated from 1850-1860, producing 25 million bricks. It was later known as the Horlbeck Brick and Tile Company. Today the original boiler’s brick chimney still stands in the heart of Brickyard Plantation as a reminder of the neighborhood’s history.
