The property lends itself to a variety of alternative uses such as office space, light industrial use or storage.
Previously used as the popular (first of its kind in Grimsby area) traditional working pottery studio, hosting regular classes on the potter’s wheel. This unique property with exposed bricks and wooden beams, has a rustic feel and would provide the perfect venue as a creative space for perhaps another potter, artist, sculptor, craftsperson with ample opportunities for meetings/photography shoots or even as we had planned – an upstairs art exhibition space to promote the work of other artists.
Note: A large 3 phase potter’s kiln (currently disconnected) will be left in the building for use or buyers disposal.
Location

It’s prominent position with large frontal display windows encourages good footfall and passing trade.
