<p>[QUOTE="popsycat, post: 146123, member: 1904"]Sorry if this info appears twice. I looked in my book "The potteries of Sunderland and district" bought at the Sunderland museum about 45 years ago. Cottage ware is illustrated attributed to the "garrison" pottery. (so called because it was next to the military garrison. I think most of the potteries did that design though as it was very popular. Because Sunderland was a seaport, the pottery ended up all over the world, taken back by visiting sailors. The fisherfolk took it all along the coast as well, all the way up north and down to the south of England. It would be very difficult to attribute yours to a specific pottery. Stangely, here in France, we find lustreware called Jersey pottery because if it was bought in Jersey no tax was due on it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
