Coalport China Museum
Summer fun is waiting for you here - bring a picnic and your creativity!
The Victorians loved tea! No wonder they made such exquisite china cups & pots.
You’ll be amazed by the spectacular treasures made in these quirky buildings – from elaborate statuesque vases to hand-painted miniatures, they were made for everyone from wealthy families to Queens and Tsars. See traditional techniques in riverside workshops, dress-up in the Children’s gallery and step inside the atmospheric kilns.
