Etruria Industrial Museum is the last steam-powered potters’ mill in Britain. The mill is in steam several times a year
Etruria Industrial Museum is the last steam-powered potters’ mill in Britain. The mill is ‘in steam’ several times a year when the 1903 boiler is fired and historic machinery can be seen working. Situated in a pleasant location at the junction of the Trent & Mersey, and Caldon Canals the museum is also a perfect stop-off for walkers, cyclists and boaters. Although the museum currently operates as part of Stoke-on-Trent City Council’s Museum Service, the Friends of Etruria Industrial Museum – a group of enthusiastic supporters and volunteers – have decided to set up a small charity to help preserve and develop Etruria Industrial Museum for the benefit of the public
