Forterra Victorian Mixture Brick 65mm

The Victorian Mixture Brick is an extruded, wire-cut facing unit that marries subtle tonal variation with precision engineering. Each brick measures the UK standard 215 × 102.5 × 65 mm, slotting seamlessly into stretcher, Flemish or English bond patterns without the need for special cutting . Its lightly textured face—achieved through a gentle drag-facing process—captures natural light to reveal warm red hues interspersed with softer terracotta highlights, lending façades an authentic, period-inspired character.

Internally, the brick is vertically perforated (15–25% voids), reducing the dry weight to around 2.35 kg per unit for easier handling on site, while also improving thermal performance within the wall and providing an excellent mechanical key for mortar . Manufactured to BS EN 771-1 standards, it achieves a compressive strength of at least 40 N/mm² and water absorption below 10%, ensuring full frost resistance (F2 rating) and long-term durability in exposed UK climates .

Supplied in bulk packs of 520 bricks, the Victorian Mixture offers both the lively, handcrafted appeal of reclaimed stock and the consistency of modern production—perfect for everything from sympathetic restoration projects to striking new-build feature walls.
