Christabel Goodwin, Highwoods Pottery, Bexhill, Sussex

Christabel Goodwin set up the Highwoods Pottery in Turkey Road, Bexhill, Sussex in 1935. She chose the location because it was next to a brickworks; a convenient source of clay for the pottery. Cristabel was the daughter of the watercolourist, Albert Goodwin, who had died two years before the pottery was established.
