Teapots

27 Aug 2021 3 125
Price's National Teapots at Longport (also known as Top Bridge Works) had been occupied by Price Brothers since the 1890s, becoming Price & Kensington after an amalgamation in 1962. The Top Bridge Works was one of the earliest surviving examples of a fire proof pottery works. The building was abandoned and became increasingly derelict until 2019, when despite being listed Grade II it was demolished by the local Council.
