Stoneware Teapots in Northumberland
This brand-new pottery class will see you have a go at making one of the more challenging pottery projects - a Teapot! As a build with multiple parts and problems, we will try to build all together following a set template. The time allocation is to allow everyone a chance to succeed but we may finish early depending upon the size and composition of the group. Once finished, your teapot will stay at the studio to be fired, glazed and then re-fired. The ultimate test of a teapot is how it pours - and we can only really test this once the pot is through its complete build, fire and glaze process. And we would encourage you to embrace the process and perhaps not be too self-critical if the pot ends up being more decorative than functional. 

Please note that the workshop runs over lunch (which we don't provide) so please build the provision of a packed lunch into your day - or try one of our local eateries. (Ford Village Post Office does a lovely menue of hot and cold lunch options). 

There are only six places per session - this allows enough access to support for everyone to be successful! The numbers are limited to avoid over-crowding in the workshop. If you book a place for a young person and feel they will need help in creating their teapot, please come along and help them (as a non-paying spectator). Even with only six people booked in a session, it can be difficult to support everyone in the way they need. Again, please note this at the time of booking. 

The ticket price covers all tuition, tools, firings and glaze for one teapot. Please note that these pots will be glazed in just one colour - dip-glazed as you request. 

A word of warning - the kiln Gods can be fickle, and despite doing everything possible, some pieces will fail, crack or blow up (!) in the kiln. There are no guarantees in pottery, not even for seasoned potters. A second word of warning - working with pottery can be hugely addictive. You have been warned!

The New Ford Studio is housed on the ground floor of the old Reading Rooms - you will find it just up the road from Lady Waterford Hall. Nearby are many attractions and places to walk, shop and eat; how about a near by Narrow-guage Railway (that runs to Etal Castle and back), a working flour mill, a Village Shop & Tearoom, a heavy horse centre, a micro-brewery, or a Riverside cafe? 

Please note - access to the studio is only via a set of external stone steps, and there is a single toilet available on site. 

If you need your work posting out to you or someone else, please ensure you book an additional postage and packing ticket!

And finally - There is ample free parking at Ford, at Heatherslaw and at Etal. Ravn Clay sits at the heart of the Estate, which also offers camping, glamping, B&Bs and guests houses. And there’s plenty more to do and see while you are here - 
Heatherslaw Light Railway
Etal Castle (English Heritage)
Heatherslaw Mill
Hay Farm Heavy Horse Centre
Lady Waterford Hall
Flodden Battlefield
Loads of little eateries, pubs and shops etc
Spectacular scenery, walking and countryside
