Help to restore photograph of a long lost pottery please.

It would be really appreciated if some one could work their magic on the attached faded photograph.

It is of a local pottery that disappeared in the middle of the nineteenth century.

The photograph was probably taken Circa 1860.  The pottery disappeared shortly after that date.

Many thanks.

Thank you Japeflakes & genechaser.

Both photographs are so much sharper and clearer.

If anyone could enhance the photograph with a touch of colour, that would be appreciated too.

Many thanks,
