LOCATION:
Address:
Eastnor Pottery, Home Farm, Eastnor, Ledbury, Herefordshire HR8 1RD
Directions:
The small Herefordshire village of Eastnor is located 2 miles east of Ledbury on the A438 Ledbury - Tewkesbury Road. NB If you are traveling via the M50, set the satnav to journey via Ledbury to avoid narrow, winding lanes and a ford.
Free parking:
Please do not park in the lane as there are plenty of spaces in the Pottery Carpark in-front of the studio.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:
Courses take place on specific weekends throughout the year.
Maximum of x8 participants per course
Minimum age14yrs.
Course runs 10am - 4pm both days and you'll have your own personal potter’s wheel for the duration.
Tea/coffee/biscuits are provided - please bring a packed lunch.
The weekend is peppered with demonstrations and information - there is also plenty of time for you to experiement with the techniques you've been shown.
Saturday is all about manipulating the soft clay on the wheel and you'll be taken, as a group, through the throwing process. Once you have the hang of things, you'll be encouraged to develop at your own pace with individual tutoring as and when required.
Your fabulous pots are left over night to firm up..
On Sunday, your 'leather hard' pots are ready to be trimmed on the wheel. Handles and motifs can also be added at this stage before finally painting and decorating.
Your creations are then dried, fired, glazed and dispatched to your home address, arriving approximately one month later.

WHAT TO BRING WITH YOU:
Please bring your own apron and an old hand towel/tea towel. Alternatively, you can hire an apron and towel bundle from us at £5 per person. We will be using terracotta clay which is likely to stain white and light coloured clothing/foot-ware, so please dress appropriately.
Although we provide tea/coffee and biscuits throughout, please bring a packed lunch. There is also an alfresco café in the village. ‘The Woodshed’ is a short walk from the Pottery and offers takeaway tea, coffee and cake. They also offer a range of light snacks.
