Local pottery

Post by Lesley Jean »

I think there was a discussion a while back now about Potteries in the area and who is and is not still producing their own items but I can't find it. Can anyone tell me if the Potter at the end of the out road on the right is still in business and if so his name and contact details if at all possible. Or failing that the name of a local pottery who is able to produce pottery to individual requirements, fairly cheaply so not Porches pottery, altho' I love their stuff and have lots in the house I need some simple but cheap items made??

Thanks :lol:

Have you tried Casa Grade on the N125. I am sure they make their own pottery items.

I haven't as I thought they bought in so was trying to go to the potter rather than an outlet who would put their profit on it as well

Thanks Pato for your wonderful input but this is to do with my business here in the UK and the lower price the better for my customers. I would love to be able to purchase expensive items but they just won't sell at the right price here in the UK.
