I don't have a photo right now, but can anyone suggest what these bricks might be? They were a bluey colour inside, weighed much less than concrete, sizes varied. They were under some soil/pine needle layers that I've cleared away. Brittle and cracked quite easily.

Blue you say? And now rather brittle?

Sound like the ones from dismantling parts of Windscale. I'd leave 'em well alone if I were you...

Sorry, apparently uranium is yellow. Plutonium?

Either asbestos or Raspberry Bonbons

EDIT - I don't want to sound alarmist but it could be Parma Violets
