Handsome Vase - Dennis Lane?

Can't seem to narrow this mark down to one maker, my book tells me it could be Peta Larsen, Patrick Lester or Pat Laurenson, Any ideas please

I hadn't heard of any of the 3 potters that you mention at the top of your post but having done a little research none of their work looks anything like your vase, which appears to have "some age".

One possibility that comes to mind is Peter Lane, who has primarily produced porcelain for the last 40 years or so. He did produce stoneware at least for a few years in the late 1960s and maybe since. The shape of the vase doesn't seem out of the question either.

It is a long shot but it might be worth contacting him by email.

not Peter Lane as he has mailed me back. Still searching but found another similar mark "Liz Pallfy" although can find very little on her

Here's another mystery PL pot to add to the thread. Just got it off ebay and it's a really nice piece, stoneware, 9.2cm (height) and a grey/brown glaze pretty much identical to cookiepops' vase. The LP monogram however has a serif to the P which cookie's does not. My mark is identical to this one, also unidentified! Thrown Clay website
