Anyone know where I kight buy this type of brick ????

Hi all,

I am replacing a collapsed wall in my garden and making it double skinned. I will be placing the capping bricks at 90 degree to the way they were previously fitted so obviously will need to double up. I need to try and keep the same type if possible as they run around the perimeter of the steps at ground level, these I don't want to disturb.
My question is, can anyone identify this brick and any idea where I might find replacements ?
The previous owner of this house was obsessed with Wickes but they don't appear to be the supplier.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I do know they wont match exactly where ever I buy from but if I can mix and match new with old to form a pattern I would be more than happy.
Brick dimentions 220x100x65mm (approx)
Thanks for any sensible suggestions

There are plenty of merchants that offer a brick matching service.

For instance

Looks like an Accrington Red.

But ask for a "solid red class 1 engineering brick", and you won't go far wrong

Thanks Woody. Visited my local Jewsons and got the closest match today.
Best regards
