Randle Brook and Bridge
John Winstanley (1856-1934) had a clay pipe works at Randle Brook Bridge. It was reported that he produced a curiosity with 25 separate bowls as a show-piece. Many potters, using local clay, turned to making clay pipes in the 17th century as tobacco smoking gained in popularity. They combined this cottage industry with farming but later as the industry grew and fine clay was imported by sea from Devon and Cornwall, clay pipe making supported many families working in small workshops, their products being popular far and wide.
