(Not Wilan, William, Cullodan or Gillian) Cilladon Pottery, Pris McGirr
More three toed sloth than tiger claw and Amateur style more than Hamada style but I can't read the signature that seems to begin with W. Perhaps European?

Re: Cilladon Pottery, Pris McGirr
Maybe rubbing some chalk across the signature before photographing it will help it stand out.

Thanks I will try that chalk trick to see if I can get a better image of the signature

Cant find any Colluden signed like this. All seem to be stamp marked.

Re: Cilladon Pottery, Pris McGirr
It looks like Culloden to me but, as suggested, not a mark that I know Bob Park used when potting there.

Re: Cilladon Pottery, Pris McGirr
I believe it's by Cilladon Pottery, Walthamstow. Run by Pris McGirr and her husband Don in the 60s. (Heather & Michael Ducos of Alford Pottery trained there at some point before setting up their own pottery in 1972)

There is a Culloden pottery, the pottery of Bob Park near Inverness. Domestic and individual pieces in stoneware and porcelain. 1970-97. The book gives the mark as BOB CULLODEN in capitals. But potters do vary their marks.

Re: Cilladon Pottery, Pris McGirr
Culloden was one of the ‘maybes’. But the lettering is consistent across a dozen pots I have on file and none match that word. Discovered the word was Cilladon when a written one turned up

Re: Cilladon Pottery, Pris McGirr
I was all excited as I was convinced it was Allison but you’re right Denby - Robert Park at Culloden, Scotland, 1970-1997. Well done!
