Hello

Thanks for visiting Cloverhill Ceramics. 

I'm Lisa, married to Peter. We have two boys who are now taller than me, which is a very strange feeling! I have always been a maker whether it was banging nails into wood with my Dad, sewing with my Mum or knitting with my Granny. 

I studied ceramics at Carmarthen, South Wales over twenty years ago. I didn't do anything with clay again until 2016, when life had thrown a few challenges at us. I took a notion to buy some clay as stress relief and I was soon making a couple of bits and pieces every week. My family pointed out that we had more mugs than the average cafe! My pastime had got out of hand, so Cloverhill Ceramics was born.

My pottery was a 200 year old, stone built dwelling house, then turned to agricultural use. It housed pigs for many years and a few hens. This has now become my place to make, cool in the summer and freezing in the winter when it takes ages for clay to dry.

Sam the chocolate labrador is my pottery assistant, although he's still a bit clumsy on the wheel yet.....
