This space has had many lives. Built as a calving shed in the 19th century, the terracotta feed channel still remains, running along the wall under the sink. Converted to a garage and boat store, an enormous white metal 1970s up and over garage door made the space both dark and freezing. Replacing the garage door with vast aluminium windows, facing due west towards the Mendip Hills, flooded the space with light. Everything else has been left untouched. The walls still peeling lime plaster over stone, concrete and metal dividing the space, on one side the kiln, sink, drying shelves and glaze materials; on the other tables for clay work and a dry table for print making and drawing. The studio is embedded in the landscape, looking out over fields and woods and the garden. Stone walls and terracotta pan tiled roof like so many Somerset buildings. It is a space I could spend all my days in.
