George's House and Clay pit - Local clay sourcing

At the beginning of the MA during the collaborative project I looked at mapping , narratives and landscape. I looked at ' Georges House' as a case study for a focal point.

I suppose these thoughts about location, personal histories and clay being'of the earth'and a metaphor for time took me further along this path.
