Two hours at the Forge with local ceramicist Victoria Brook, working in clay by hand. Victoria leads you through hand building, carving and sculpting to shape a small bowl, drawing on forms and markings found in the natural world. Most guests leave with one or two pieces. Hot drinks and a Forge seasonal scone are served partway through the morning. Victoria takes the finished work away to glaze and fire. Pieces are ready in around six weeks and can be collected from the estate or from her Newcastle studio. Postage can be arranged for a fee.
