Wetheriggs Country Pottery Museums
All around Wetheriggs there is a lot to experience and many ways for you to express your own individuality and creativity. . . All far away from the madding crowd. . . And in every season and for every month of the year. We all have a huge well of creativity inside us and now its time to let it run free at Wetheriggs.
Choose from throwing a pot from a nice wet juicy ball of clay or paint a figurine or paint bowls, plates and mugs or create a mosaic or paint on glass - these and lots more things to do.
So fire your imagination with our help and you can easily create a very personal piece of art either for yourself or as a precious gift for someone else.
Wetheriggs Pottery is a 19th Century Industrial Monument steeped in a history of incredible creative spirit and endeavour and the fact that it remains today as the UK's only steam-powered pottery is testimony to that.
The 10 acres of grounds and gardens are a mecca for wildlife including all three types of native newt, over 30 different types of birds and when everyone goes home, badgers and foxes.

Easter - End of October 10am - 5. 30pm
