Kingsgate Open Studios

The studios are on three floors in a converted 19th century warehous with what must be "original design features" - though it was probably built before the days of electricity.
Lots of potters there, also furniture makers, painters, textiles - a good mix. Here are some pots made by 6 year olds in a class - including the Leaning Tower of Pisa - not bad, eh? -
