    Where are the world's largest brickfields?

    Question #41326. Asked by gmackematix. (Nov 19 03 9:37 PM)

    I found two making the claim of being the largest in the world:

    Way back in 1946, Midland Brick began making kiln fired clay bricks to meet the urgent demand for building materials after World War 2.

    Today the company produces bricks and pavers from the largest brickworks in the world at Middle Swan, and exports around the globe.

    Midland Brick is the largest clay brick manufacturer on one site in the world. Midland has been acknowledged in the Guinness Book of Records as the largest brickworks in the world.

    British Aerospace is the largest aerospace company in Europe, and the largest brickworks in the world is at Stewartby.

    What is the worlds' largest herb?

    Where did the Worlds largest McDonalds open in 1990?

    I'm looking for the name of a TV mini series movie/show. We had rented them from the video store. It's about a boy who is traveling to different worlds looking for pieces of a machine to get him back home (I think.) He is gathering something along his way. He travels to different worlds with a "professor" and maybe another person. Along the way he visits 5-8 different worlds (each was a different movie.) They were all entitled "Somebody and the Land of ???" One world had to do with giant eggs, one world a town of toys, and the end was a land something like a fantasy "Camelot." My children watched these movies anywhere from 1988 - 1993. I'm hoping someone can help me end my frazzled search.
