I'm not British, but the vast majority of their buildings indeed seem to fall into either the "bricks" or the "gravel" category - not just castles.

All our houses are brick based. Source: own house in UK, made of bricks.

But don't understand why it's portrayed as bad here?

I think they might mean bricked up, as in the windows have been bricked over?

Or maybe they’re associated with buildings built during a certain period that are now mostly empty due to a boom and bust cycle?

Its not, its just a common thing.
