How long before the vandals get in and smash the pots?
Sad to see it closed down.
Great pics.

really loved this report, any info about what the company made or anything except for what's in the pics? Love old potteries! Also that typewriter shot is epic

yeh they manufactured cornishware there the famous blue and white striped stuff, from about 1925, when it closed it became really sought after although i think someones now bought the company and they manufacture elsewhere
its a real interesting place and its huge, you can go into 2 of the kilns both still have pots in, and there is so much fired unpainted pottery lying around, although vandalisms slowly creepigng in

it is places like this that will suffer heavily from vandalism 'cause it is so easy to just smash some pots up and some idiots think this looks like fun for some reason

I'd rather they were smashing the pots than smashing up the buildings though!
