Bloomfield’s Trail – a trail for younger visitors
The Bloomfield Trail, called after the John Caldwell Bloomfield, founder of Belleek Pottery has been developed primarily for younger visitors and tells the story of how the pottery is made. A series of 16 hand-drawn, colourful ceramic plaques are located at key points on the pottery tour. Head of Design at Belleek, Fergus Cleary created the animations taking inspiration from a series of old photographs dating back to 1857.
On arrival at Belleek Pottery Visitor Centre, children are provided with a trail map at reception.

The trail map has 16 points and the children have to follow the clues on the map to find the answers on the plaques throughout the tour.
