Burleigh
Staffordshire was once synonymous with pottery manufacturing, which created a landscape littered with characteristic bottle shaped ovens and factories known locally as pot banks.
But since the industry went into decline, the local population have changed the way they work and many of the factories have been flattened.
Ray Gosling travelled to Burslem, near Stoke on Trent, to visit one surviving pot bank, making and selling blue and white Burleighware china the old fashioned way, and meets Rosemary and Will Dorling, the married couple who took it over - without any previous experience.
Written and Presented by Ray Gosling.
