Thomas Sharpe established his pottery in 1821, rising from 'Farm Boy to Gentleman Potter.' 200 years later Sharpe Bros. & Co. Ltd. still own the original pottery, believed to be the Oldest Surviving Sanitary Pottery Works in the World. Sharpe's Rise is based on original research and discoveries unearthed by the Author, not only about Sharpe's Pottery, but the fascinating characters associated with it. The Author brings together local, national, industrial and social history including a banking scandal that rocked Victorian England and nearly ruined Sharpe's owners. A unique and evocative story of Toby Jugs to basin plugs.
