Please help me to id this Stoneware preserve jar with lid
Perhaps a pic of the full base with the mark not so enlarged will help. Looks to me like a capital B with the letter C linked underneath.

"Bridgefoot" may not be the word I was trying to remember, from what I remember it sounded similar though.
I'll keep thinking.
I think it's a BP monogram, I have a little vase somewhere by the same maker.

Didn't finish with this one, perhaps another picture of the mark will help. Does anyone recognise it?

This pot was made in the late 70's early 80's at birkenhead park pottery :) I know this as i worked there as a apprentice in the 70's and the stamp is registered at the Williamson art gallery

Welcome Carla and thank you for the information. I notice that you are making pots under your own name these days.

Found a reference somewhere, while looking for something else,
attributing this mark to a Brampton pottery, but there are
several Bramptons in the UK.

I've seen the mark before but not IDed it. There was a suggestion it was Old Ballarat Pottery from Australia which has a similar mark but different font so just mentioning it to exclude itÂ

Unique if nothing else. It does look like there's an impressed fern to the right of it, to my eyes at least 🥴

I believe it’s by Glynn Ward, Birkenhead, although another pottery also used the same decoration so he may have had more than one pottery.
