Extract from the Manufacturer's Report. We made a large quantity of China from the Clay. The Clay came to us with all its impurities. It was washed and the Mica taken from it and used without any of the careful processes of preparation to which our English Clays are subjected. Taking this fact into account, the results were surprisingly good. We see no reason why Clay Works should not be erected in Ireland as we are confident that the Clay is of considerable value. Note: Josiah Wedgwood the great Potter in giving evidence before the House of Commons stated that the English Potters obtained their Clay from Devon, Dorset, Cornwall and the Irish Coast
