Gladstone Pottery Museum
Gladstone Pottery Museum was originally the Gladstone Works, started in the 1780s. The ovens were last fired in 1960. The Museum was opened in 1974 and is the last remaining Victorian pottery factory complete with traditional coal burning bottle ovens. The new exhibition called `Flushed With Pride´ tells the story of the toilet and contains the most comprehensive collection of historic toilets in the world. Live demonstrations by expert staff and audio-visual tours show visitors the skills of the potteries. Gladstone also has the nationally recognised collections of decorated tiles, now redisplayed in the new Tile Gallery.
