Visited this last year with man gone wrong and priority 7 and his son.we were in the area so gave it a little look.this was a re visit for me but I do like this place.the place had suffered a bit more since my last trip..the pottery was one of many around stoke which sadly has lost its industry and now only a few small ones survive,established in 1891 by J.H Weatherby it originally started making earthernware then later fine porcelain.the firm expanded rapidly in 1906.the firm continued too grow employing over 2000 people.the firm closed in 200o and at the time of closure employed only 10 people.

Agreed, nice collection of images and well done finding some new angles, that's always the challenge on a re-visit.
 
Thank you all.it is always good to go back to try new shots.i love seeing wear on steps from years of use
 
Love the old brick kilns and the shelves of pottery:)...were they all lobbed out of the window when you went on your revisit???...I got sum miserable shots of "empty shelving" it just ain't the same mikey lol...then again I cuda been in the wrong bit, wudn't be the first time!

Great record of the place:congratulatory:
