Despite a busy world of Amazon orders, instant deliveries and quick-fixes, there are still some things that remain unchanged. In the tiny village of Ewenny, Bridgend, lies the oldest established pottery in Wales that has been in the same family for eight generations.
Run by Caitlin Jenkins from the eighth generation of the family and her dad Alun Jenkins - from the seventh, they are dedicated to making the pottery a long-lasting fixture of the community. And it feels like more than a business to them - when I spoke to Caitlin, it was clear that it was actually a way of life.
Caitlin was trained at Ewenny Pottery by her father Alun. She completed a ceramics degree course at the University of Wales Institute Cardiff in 1998. You can get more Bridgend news and other story updates straight to your inbox by subscribing to our newsletters here.
