The old offices interest me as much as the pottery. I’d follow the heritage trail first; a working place makes more sense when you understand how it was organised.

Middleport Pottery Heritage Trail.
Follow the self-led trail through a pottery that still produces Burleigh ware. Historic offices, the mould store, bathhouse and steam engine reveal the organisation and people behind the familiar blue-and-white designs. Factory tours are a separate experience; check availability and access before booking.

I’d spend time around the historic buildings rather than treating the trail as a checklist. The mould store and bathhouse tell very different sides of the same working day.
