In American English the term "brick wall" sounds fine. "Bricks wall" is odd. If you asked "what's the bike shed made of?" either "bricks" or "brick" would be fine answers. I think that data consumers should accept both, and thus it does not matter how people tag it. Describe both on the wiki as redirects to the same place.
