Ceramics atNumber 15

Carolyn, formerly a lawyer, now runs this ceramics studio on The Tything, within walking distance of Worcester's Foregate Street station and its bus routes. Four pottery wheels fill the room, used for weekly small-group classes on Monday and Thursday evenings and Wednesday and Thursday mornings, sold in blocks of four rather than as single drop-ins. One-to-one sessions run two and a half hours at seventy-five pounds, two-to-one at a hundred and thirty-five, with private group bookings available for friends, families, or colleagues. Students choose wheel-throwing or hand-building, working in the same space where Carolyn's own tableware and homeware pieces are made and sold. Street and pay-and-display parking sit nearby, making the studio reachable without a car for visitors coming into the city centre.
