Claybank Brick Plant National Historic Site

We walked through this on a very hot day, but it was more interesting than I expected! Sad that it is no longer a big employer! Don't leave without buying homemade lunch, generous, reasonable and served by very friendly staff.

Would have loved to have toured closer up but everything was fenced off. Looks like our Federal funding has dropped to the point where this place will be just a pile of rubble soon. This is a crying shame on the National Historic Society

A pretty interesting place to see for only $10. Hard to believe this operated until 1989. If you are hiker then there is a 3 to 5 km trail. The trail provides a great over look of the area. The trail has interesting formations (bad lands / dirt hills). The trail is a loop but the loop is not well marked. There is a nice church in Claybank itself. I assume it was made out of brick produced here. Avonlea is only 15 minutes to the East. if you combine this with a trip to the Avonlea museum and Avonlea Bad Lands then you can easily make a day of it. You must book the tour of the Avonlea bad lands ahead of time.

Pretty cool place & lots of "local" history, modest cost $10ea, but its a donation. Very nice folks all the way around.

We drove here from Moose Jaw and were greeted with a Closed for the season sign. Would have been nice to know that prior to making the hour long drive out here.
Looks cool otherwise.
