Neglected Potters Wheel Owners, it's time you came out of the closet and headed to Somerset.

I thought I might  just ask what might seem a silly question

Do you have one of these you don't use?

How can you be so cruel ?!

Is it sat in a cold damp garage covered in dust & cardboard boxes

never seeing the light of day or a bowl full of warm water?

Is that oh so very comfy seat being neglected

never to have the delights of a warm bum sat upon it?

Has that 13amp plug just been dangling over the edge of the tray

getting in your way and taking up space?

Shame on you!

 Now is your chance to redeem yourself.

As ever we have no spare money to just go out and buy

two new wheels, but the pottery school is starting to get booked up

and one of our wheels has died.

We like this type of wheel but we are open to ideas

so if you can help

we are looking to obtain two more potters wheels.

So do yourself a favour make some room, get a bit of cash for it

and give us a call or maybe email might be better,

 it's a kind of dating agency for unloved potters wheels.

what could we call it?

what about,

Mucky Love.com ?

Ok Maybe not.

#OpenforBusiness@Barrington Pottery

The Somerset Levels has never had so much Media Attention

with the floods.

If only they would come back when businesses are

able to re open after the largest amount of rainfall in a Generation.

This shot from the air gives just a flavour of the extent of the flooding.

Luckily for us here at Barrington Pottery we have been able to keep open

and keep working.

The weather is getting us down a bit now, but at least we are not flooded.

The ladies in Barrington organised a coffee morning in the Village Hall

to raise funds for the flood affected people.

and they raised just over £1000.

We have been busy making stock and orders

and we have made a few changes to showroom

I finally feel as if i'm getting somewhere with it. 

Today is another day of rain, but this is about as bad as it gets outside our workshop.

 The Flue to the log burner is still leaking

and running down the pipe

but we can cope with that for now.

 Our Cottage has had a few close shaves with the flooding

but as yet we are still dry at home.

 I'm glad I put a new roof on the old workshop in January

and it's still there.

 Here are some of the new jugs in stock

Half Pint, Pint & Pint & a Half sizes.

 We have had the odd days with a break in the weather

and on one of these we stopped in at a church that had been recommended to us

by one of our customers

 Hornblotten church was just amazing.

and a little light relief from all of the misery of wet weather.

Anyway chin up wellies on

it's half term here and Marion is doing play with clay

this week 11am - 3.30pm

Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, & Friday.

We have had to increase the price to £3 per person

but it's still good value and the kids love it.
