Aonghus and Alasdair Gordon with Reinhart
The Development Story
Over the next fifteen years, they were energised by the inspirations of three men whose visions had helped shape the lives of the Gordon family: Rudolf Steiner, John Ruskin and William Morris.
By 1984, they had germinated into the Ruskin Mill Centre for Arts and Cultural Regeneration. In that year, pupils from nearby Cotswold Chine Special School helped restore the mill's water-wheel.
Inspired by the encounter, one Chine pupil, Jason Turner, chose, on leaving at 16, to come to live, work and study at the Mill amongst the artisans working there in leather, stained-glass, textiles and metal.
