    Brickton definitely lacks much charm as a town name. Most of Utah (where I am) could be called Granitetown for all the granite dug up and used in buildings here. There’s a huge quarry where they used to dig up building material, now it’s a very fancy and upscale area that costs mega $$ - just to live next to a big pit in the ground.
