The Poole Pottery site and business were acquired by Orb Estates plc in

manufacturing site in the borough of Poole.  Poole Pottery Limited's factory
outlet shop and tourist attraction will continue to operate whilst the
proposed development is constructed on the adjoining site.

major developer to build both the commercial and residential elements.  The
residential properties will ultimately be sold.
