Chimney Pots

Monochrome view of rare twin derelict bottle ovens in the Potteries, England. In the heyday of the pottery industry in Stoke-on-Trent there were up to 4,000 bottle kilns with as many as 2,000 still standing in the 1950’s. Now there are just 47 left standing.

A leftover relic of the once thriving pottery factory established by W. H. Goss in 1858
