Etruria Industrial Museum
Overview
The Etruria Industrial Museum, situated in an attractive canal-side location, is the home of the world's sole surviving, steam-powered potters' mill. Listed as an Scheduled Ancient Monument in 1975, the Mill is "in steam" several times a year when the 1903 boiler is fired and the 1820s Princess beam engine drives the historic machinery.
