St George's Church on the Isle of Portland, was designed by architect and quarry merchant Thomas Gilbert. Built of Portland Stone, construction commenced in 1753 and St.George's was consecrated in 1766. The church was closed in 1914 and became derelict but was restored in the 1960's and is now under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. No longer retained for regular worship, services are nevertheless held twice annually on St George's Day and Christmas Day. In the graveyard there are 24 Commonwealth War Graves burials, 14 from the First World War and 7 from the Second. Taken with a 1975 Polaroid SX-70 Land Camera model 1 on Polaroid (TIP) B+W film.

The Dingle was the personal garden of famous Radio and TV garden program presenter Percy Thrower set within the larger Quarry Park, separated by high hedges and fences around the perimeter. Inside the Dingle, there are formal gardens, little passages and wild areas to explore, a lake and water features. During the Second World War the Quarry was turned over for food production. Percy was appointed Parks Superintendent in 1946, transforming it to what it is today. Percy Thrower became a household name in the 1950's and '60's frequently appearing on radio and television. His influence on public and private garden design and planting is still felt today. Taken with a 1981 Polaroid SX-70 Land Camera Supercolor Autofocus on Polaroid (TIP) film.
The Church of St. James-the-Less sits between the High Street (now Uttoxeter Road) and Normacot Road, a Commissioners' Church built in 1834. It was designed by the Architect James Trubshaw with seating for 2,000 to serve as the Parish Church of Longton, one of the six towns of the Potteries. Adjacent to the Churchyard on the right of the photograph is the Stanley Pottery Works on Bagnall St (renamed Chelson St in the 1950's). The first business to operate there was Plant Brothers, established in 1889 at the Crown Works in Burslem, and then moved to the Stanley Works in 1906. From 1912 the site was occupied by the New Chelsea Porcelain Co but in September 1951 the business and trade names were sold to Susie Cooper Pottery Ltd and the new business operated with the name New Chelsea China Co. Ltd. In 1957 the company acquired the business of Jackson & Gosling Ltd. but then ceased trading in 1961. The Stanley Works was then operated by Grosvenor China Ltd until 1969 when it too ceased trading. Taken with a 1976 Polaroid SX-70 Land Camera Alpha 1 on Polaroid (TIP) film

The oolitic limestone quarries on the Isle of Portland, Dorset have been supplying stone for several centuries for buildings such as Christopher Wren's St. Paul's Cathedral, Buckingham Palace, the Bank of England and the National Gallery. It has also been exported abroad, the UN Headquarters in the US and all Commonwealth Graves headstones from two world wars in cemeteries across Europe are all Portland Stone.

Down an alley off Warren Street in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent is a car breaker's yard from which can be seen the Enson Pottery Works, the range and bottle ovens of which date from the middle of the 19th Century. The original potbank known as the Dresden Works was built by John Proctor in 1843 but was taken over by Middleton and Hudson in 1870 and renamed the Alma works, and the Delphine Works from 1879. The factory was then purchased in 1948 by Spencer Stevenson & Co who specialised in domestic bone china and hotel ware and named it the Enson Pottery Works. Production ceased in 1963 and the site was largely derelict by 1998 when it was purchased by Stoke City Council. It has been renovated to create the Centre of Refurbishment Excellence (CORE) used for education, business and as a heritage centre. Four bottle ovens and the two storey range are Grade II listed buildings and form the heritage centre.

The Grade II listed Coalport Porcelain factory was built by John Rose in 1796 on the Coalport Canal which had recently opened in 1792, giving access to the River Severn and export trade routes through Gloucester Docks. In 1800 his brother Thomas started another manufactory on the opposite side of the canal under the name Coalbrookedale, making tableware with a similar elaborate overglazed decoration. In 1814 the two factories combined and traded under the name Coalport China. In 1925 the company was bought by Cauldon Potteries Ltd. and production was moved to Shelton, Stoke-on-Trent. In 1926 Cauldon Ltd. became part of the Wedgwood Group which itself has been through several changes of ownership over the years and was bought by Finnish home products company, Fiskars in 2015. Production of Coalport tableware was slowly phased out and the most important patterns were moved under the Wedgwood brand produced mainly in Indonesia.

A pottery works was first established on this site in 1891 and occupied a year later by John Henry Weatherby who had left the partnership of Whittaker, Edge & Co to establish his own business. In 1892 the works had four kilns and one in the process of erection; by 1900 there were eight bottle kilns. In 1906 a large entrance range was built to the works with three stories and twenty three bays. From 1925 to 1961 there were five bottle ovens in constant use but these were replaced by electric kilns and four were taken down following the Clean Air Act of 1956. One of the coal-fired kilns was retained, having last been fired in 1965 and in 1989 this was awarded a Grade II listing together with the rest of the site. Weatherby's first made domestic ware such as basins and ewers, later moving into tableware and giftware. After WW2 they also produced novelty items such as 'chuckleheads' (cups and saucers shaped like animals), 'beasties' (dinosaurs), commemorative pieces, dwarf figurines and tableware often decorated with 1960s favourite images such as Gonks and Daleks. J.H.Weatherby was a prolific manufacturer producing thousands of patterns ranging from whiteware, collectables and dinnerware through to souvenirs and Fortnum & Mason pudding bowls. In the 1970's the company launched a range of hotelware which eventually contributed to its downfall, mainly from competition from home and abroad. In April 2000 the Chairman of the Board Christopher Weatherby, great-great grandson of founder John Henry Weatherby, announced the winding up of the company. At its height J.H.Weatherby Ltd. employed 200 people but the figure was down to 50 by the 1990's and stood at 10 at the time of closure. As a footnote to this picture, it might be a surprise to those who are unfamiliar with local custom and practice in The Potteries to see a Grade II listed building which has been vacant for such a short period in such an advanced state of dereliction. Perhaps I should explain its common for all such historic buildings to 'self-combust' soon after becoming redundant; it gives the crackheads something to do, the fire-bobbies love a shout, it entertains the spectators and no-one seems to care.

Hay Moor at Stoke St Gregory on the Somerset levels is approximately 12' below the River Tone which runs at the top of the embankment to the left of the picture. The wind powered water pump drains the water into a series of ditches and dykes which is then lifted by electric pump back into the river. In 2014 as a result of severe storms caused by climate change, the Levels suffered catastrophic flooding with many families losing their homes.

This year I'm using a different film format each month, starting with the smallest and working my way up through the sizes. The format for November is Polaroid SX-70, which has a slightly larger image area than last month's 6x9cm 120 format.
This was taken with a Polaroid 1000 camera (known as Polaroid Onestep in the US), it uses SX-70 film, which is once more available, having been revived by The Impossible Project a few years ago.
Pottery works and bottle oven built 1913, Grade II listed. In 1897 Burslem pottery manufacturer James Macintyre & Co took on 26-year-old RCA graduate William Moorcroft as a designer and within a year he was put in charge of the company's art pottery studio. Moorcroft's first innovative range, the Art Nouveau style 'Florian Ware' was a great success and won him a gold medal in the St.Louis International Exhibition at the 1904 World's Fair. Unusually for the time, he adopted the practice of signing all his pieces. In 1912 Macintyre & Co changed direction to concentrate on commercial ceramic fittings for the burgeoning electrical industry and ceased production of art pottery. William Moorcroft set up his own company and the following year manufacture of his pottery was transferred to a brand new factory in nearby Cobridge. He introduced an extensive line of moderately priced domestic tableware in addition to his famous tube-lined hand painted art pottery which is still the method of decoration used by the company today. In 1926 his beloved wife Flo died of pneumonia complications at the age of 47. Two years later William married his second wife Marian Lazenby, whose family owned the famous London store Liberty's which had supported Moorcroft since the Macintyre days. In the same year, 1928 William's reputation was greatly enhanced when Queen Mary granted William Moorcroft a royal warrant. Shortly before William's death in 1945, his eldest took control of the business; in 1946 King George VI re-issued the royal warrant in Walter's name. However by the 1980's the company come close to collapse which by that stage had just 12 employees, when in 1986 business partners Hugh Edwards and Richard Dennis bought a controlling interest. Walter Moorcroft stayed on as design consultant until 1999 when his final range 'Rock of Ages' which launched. In 1992 Dennis and his pottery designer wife Sally Tuffin sold their shares in Moorcroft Pottery to Hugh & Maureen Edwards who became sole owners. In 1993 Rachel Bishop, recently graduated from Staffordshire University's ceramic design course, joined Moorcroft as only its fourth (and at 24 years of age, the youngest) designer since the company was founded. In 1997 the Moorcroft Design Studio was formed with eight designers working under Rachel's leadership. In 1998 the company built a new facility and launched flambé and sgraffito decorated ranges under the name of Black Ryden and Cobridge. However, in 2006 the venture was closed, the molds and the Burslem Pottery company name was sold to paintress Tracy Bentley, to concentrate on the core business of slip-trailed art pottery. Today Moorcroft studio has 5 designers lead by Rachel Bishop as Senior Designer now in her 30th year with the company. Moorcroft Pottery continues to produce highly collectible art pottery sold in greater numbers than even in the heyday of the 1920’s. Having survived a difficult couple of years due to the pandemic, W. Moorcroft Holdings Ltd goes forward from strength to strength. The company employs 69 highly skilled staff with a turnover of £1.7m backed by substantial assets including ownership of the land and factory buildings at Cobridge together with an extensive and valuable heritage collection – well worth a visit!
