Winchcombe Pottery Centenary 2026

Winchcombe Pottery was established in 1926 when Michael Cardew took on the derelict pottery at Greet on the outskirts of Winchcombe.

It is now a hundred years since the pottery was founded and a number of events have been organised throughout the summer to celebrate the centenary of the pottery.
