No access to my books at the moment so got this and a couple of others pots to put out there for your help please.

Looks like Leaper's mark, but did he ever do this sort of thing?

Looks like FH plus four dots.

I thought Leaper signed all his stuff?

FH is possible as is CH or it may just be an incomplete bounding box on the mark Shrugs 

No idea if he always signed his stuff or not, but I'm sure someone will know if he did.

All the examples of his mark on the Pottery Studio website are signatures. But they don't appear to have any of his pots from Swanage, before he moved to Newlyn, so if this is an early mark of his, presumably it would be from his time there.

Style or mark looks nothing like leaper so I'd discount him , S Saint Leger have a similar cross with 4 dots but again your mark looks more like FH.
