Cambridge Park Oval
By Canterbury Clay Bricks
Location: Pengover Avenue, Cambridge
Architects: Albert van Vliet
General Contractor: Vida Homes
Bricklayer: Doug Hodge Bricklaying
Photographer: c/o Bayleys Waikato and Richard Thomas
Brick: Euro Red Blend (Create Range Bespoke)
About the build: Bordering a 2-acre recreational oval reserve and styled after old English villages, Cambridge Park has a unique cottage charm. The Cambridge House and Land packages all feature our bespoke Create Range, Euro Red Blend brick and stunning architectural features to create stunning new modern homes with an old-world charm. Vida Homes procured a blend of reds through to black on a skinnier than standard 230x50x70mm wirecut brick, which really gives these buildings a sense of historical grandeur. A weather-struck mortar joint was also used, which cleverly catches the light and accentuates shadows, emphasising the horizontal joints in the finished wall.

About the
Professional
Canterbury Clay Bricks is a family run business, supplying clay bricks nationally, for commercial and residential builds, since its inception over 50 years ago. We are the only manufacturer of kiln fired clay bricks in the South Island.
We offer you an impressive collection using rich Canterbury clays, from which we have created a host of enduring finishes and colours that will add style and value to your new home or project.
Canterbury Clay Bricks manufacturing plant is located close to its clay supplies within the surronding hills of Darfield. A number of recycled products are used in the manufacture of the bricks including re-constituted brick and recycled glass. The kilns at the plant run on up to 95% of re-claimed fuels and oil further reducing any impact of manufacturing. We supply nationwide to both residential and commercial projects, new builds and renovations.
Bricks are a blend of clays and water. The bricks are then formed, dried and kilned to produce a strong and durable end product. They are then hand blended and graded by staff to give a consistent finish.
