No information as to who ran it, and it no longer seems to be in operation, but it was near other potteries like Crowan, so may be an ex-apprentice?

Yes, it's popped up a few times but I don't know what the posters titled their threads because nothing's coming up on the searches.

I can find various references to a potter called Paul Murray impressing his work with a seal and  "Praze-an-Beeble", eg here:

http://www.the-saleroom.com/en-us/auction-catalogues/tennants-auctioneers/catalogue-id-srten10003/lot-13adddbc-1e00-41bb-8812-a3f501409831

As so often with these obscure potteries, Google Books throws up a result from a 1975 directory called "Traditional English Country Crafts and How to Enjoy Them Today", which sounds very useful.
