Scorched at Claverton Yard

≈ 6 min

Between the start of an overnight firing session at 22:00 on Thursday 1 October and the opening of the kiln house at 07:30 on Friday 2 October 2026, the temperature controller on Kiln 2 at the Claverton Yard Potters' Cooperative was interfered with, causing the firing cycle to run at an uncontrolled temperature. The cooperative shares its rear access path with the Claverton Touring Orchestra rehearsal complex next door. Your task is to profile the offender's behaviour — not to name them.
