Bettles Gallery - 2007 - Exhibition

This sellout exhibition features work from what turned out to be Bill Marshall's last firing in December 2006 before his death in May 2007. Bill was taken on as an apprentice at the Leach Pottery by Bernard Leach way back in 1938 and was later to become the mainstay of the pottery before leaving in 1977 to set up he own workshop in Lelant just up the road from St. Ives where he worked with his son Andrew.
