Gladstone Museum

December 16, 2009 By Big Days Out Leave a Comment

Gladstone is the only complete Victorian pottery factory from the days when coal-burning ovens made the world’s finest bone china. Explore the cobbled yard, with huge bottle kilns and take part in daily workshops.

Stoke-on-Trent is world famous for its pottery and no visit to the city would be complete without experiencing this unique Museum.

Discover how bone china tableware was made in the original workshops and giant bottle kilns of the former Gladstone China Works, now preserved as the last complete Victorian Pottery factory in the country.

Winner of Sandford Award 2006
