The Kelso Pottery was set up in 1970 by Ian and Elizabeth Hird.

Two small stoneware plates/dishes about 13cm across, both marked with "Kelso" written with a brush on the reverse:

This is another of their marks - a stamp.

Stoneware jug for ID please.
Impressed partially glaze filled mark, which looks different depending on how viewed.
Reminds me of some Eeles pieces.
Any help with ID appreciated.

I don’t think it’s Eeles but I’m afraid I can’t quite make out the mark. Le?

Thanks for having a look Naomi

Yes, it's a bit of a difficult one to make out.

Maybe the Kelso stamp?

Picked up this pottery pig/sow today: Incised Hud 74, Relso/Kelso with round stamp mark, thinking Cooper Pottery, though it just doesn't look quite right.
