Owl class build a cob pizza oven with us

The pupils from Owl Class at Thompson Primary School in South Norfolk built this marvellous wood fired earthen oven with us last week. Can you tell what it is?! The children were so enthusiastic and natural cob dancers - we hope they enjoy many mouthwatering pizzas from their new oven, for years to come. If looked after properly, their oven should last indefinitely. A teacher at the school is going to build a little shed roof over it to protect it and add a lime render for extra protection. If you build a cob oven though and you don't want to bother with a roof, just wrap a tarps around it when you're not using it and it'll be fine.
