The development of Jamestown in Virginia during the second half of the
seventeenth century was closely related to the making and using of bricks.There
are several practical reasons why bricks be came important to the
colony.
Although the forests could initially supply sufficient timber,the
process of lumbering was extremely difficult,particularly because of the lack
of roads.Later,when the timber on the peninsula had been depleted,wood had to
be brought from some distance.Building stone was also in short sup ply.
However,as clay was plentiful,it was inevitably that the colonists would turn
to brickmaking.
In addition to practical reasons for using brick as the
principal construction material,there was also an ideological reason.Brick
represented durability and permanence.The Virginia company of London instructed
the colonists to build hospitals and new residences out of brick.In 1662,the
town Act of the Virginia Assembly provided for the construction of thirty-two
brick buildings and prohibited the use of wood as a construction material.Had
this law ever been successfully enforced,James town would have been a model
city.Instead,the residents failed to comply fully with the law; and by 1699
Jamestown had collapsed into a pile of rubble with only three or four houses
where people could stay.
