Welcome to the website of Bob Park, Greystoke Gill Pottery

We are moving - we have sold the premises
After 10 years at Greystoke Gill we have decided to relocate the workshop.   We hope to be somewhere in the Eden valley but as yet don’t know exactly where.   Our exchange was completed last week and we will close the pottery on the 27th of April.  At the moment we have a half price sale of everything on display.  We can be contacted through this web site and we will also post our new location when we have found suitable premises. When we have moved to our new pottery we will continue with our courses and classes and retailing from the web site.

I make mainly wheel thrown individual and functional ceramics. Fired to cone 9 in either our new 40 cu.ft. wood fired kiln or our gas kiln.

Plans are well under way for the SODA KILN build and fire course.  If you are interested please contact me.  We have increased the size of the kiln to 30 cu. ft. to give us more space for the builders pots. There are more details on the courses page.

Our winter classes have been full again - we have increased the number up to 6 per week. This gives us including the childrens class 52 people a week coming through the workshop - which means I spend very little time in the winter making my own work. Classes end at Easter and will start again in October

I am in the process of working on a commission for a castle 1.5 metres high for a client in Nottingham. .

Our red squirrel (or squirrels?) buries nuts in the lawn during the Autumn and then digs them up in the winter. We only see it in the winter, but assume its hidden by the leaves in the summer.
We definitely have 2 squirrels - the other one has a much paler tail.
