Our story
One room, three crafts, a very good kettle.
Alder started in 2019 in an old joinery on Mill Yard.
We wanted a place where people could learn a craft properly, slowly and with good tools, and then stay for a coffee afterwards.
Today six makers teach here most evenings. Classes stay small: never more than eight at a bench.
