Sunshine Porcelain Potteries -

a short history

 

By Martin Brabon

 

Preface by Martin Brabon

 

...at the very end of Derby Road was a very large redbrick building. As by courage grew, I would cross Thorpe Street and walk to the building and examine it. I surveyed the pattens in the brickwork and the curved corner wall ...I eventually asked my mother about the building and what I had found on my wanders down that laneway. "That was the Pottery", she said.
