Visited last week with Dr.Doo and the usual suspects, a big thankyou to MD for his help :thumb

There's loads of info about this site here (http://www.derek-green.com/tg_green01.htm) but it's the place that made the lovely blue and white striped cornishware and Mason Cash stoneware... I'm sure everyone's gran's got one of their mixing bowls.

I'm sticking to internal shots as Dr.Doo's ones of the outside were much better than mine.

I absolutely loved this place, one of my favourite explores ever despite the cold but we did manage to warm up down the road with endless mugs of coffee and something hot to eat here before the long drive home.

Cheers guys, I think I have a new passion for potteries.

MD that diner is crazy, there are pics on their website, they just picked it up with a crane and plonked it there.

brilliant shots there Muse...definitely one of the best explores due to the abundance of artefacts and the lack of pikey activity.

rather than starting another thread here's my contribution from the day:

Really nice pictures of a cracking place. Some seriously good depth of field type shots too. Amazing so much is left.

...I WANT those silver trousers, my butt-less chaps get cold this time of year.

Why stop at the trousers TC, you could have the whole suit and do a David Bowie, the gloves were really funky :laugh
