Britain's What's On Event Guide
Moorcroft, a Heritage Art Pottery
Heritage Open Day: Discover how a heritage art pottery operates - from design, shape creation and surface decoration - meet our craftsmen and women who have spent decades learning their craft. Operating out of the original brick factory in Stoke-on-Trent, England, complete with its own Grade II listed bottle oven, Museum and Heritage Visitor Centre, Moorcroft uses the distinctive slip-trailing methods pioneered by William Moorcroft at the end of the 19th century. This incredibly labour-intensive process produces colourful designs of intricacy, brilliance, and clarity in the Arts and Crafts tradition.
