Bardon Mill Pottery


Errington Reay & Co. Ltd (aka Bardon Mill Pottery) is a family-run business, and the sole remaining UK commercial producer of salt-glazed pottery, selling directly from its visitor centre and factory shop in Bardon Mill. The business was established in 1878 by Robert Errington and William Reay, based in a former water-powered wool mill, producing salt-glazed sanitary ware and drainage pipes. In the 1970s, after plastic pipes made ceramic drainage less profitable, they shifted production to garden pots, known for their traditional hand-thrown and unique salt-glazed finish.
