Potteries Bottle Oven Day

On 29th August 1978, a traditional Potteries bottle oven was kindled and fired for the very last time. The event was organised by the 19 staff and 72 volunteers of Gladstone Pottery Museum in Stoke-on-Trent and hit the national headlines in print and broadcast media. It was a proud day for the Potteries and was described as ‘its biggest cultural event of the 20th century’.
