Not sure how old this is. 1960s? Or more modern.
Jug 25cm, glasses 14 cm tall.
Jug has ground base, drinking glasses aren’t blown.
Rims of glasses are smooth, not ribbed.
Promise this will be my last post for a bit. Thank you for looking.

I don't think it's very old, Ben, there isn't the wear on the bases you'd expect from 50-60 year-old glass unless the set has been in its box all the time, but the missing glass suggests that it has been used.
It's certainly a nice harlequin (multi-colours) lemonade set. I've had a few myself over the years (harlequin tea services, too), there's a 1950s set of harlequin shot glasses in a carousel up in the loft somewhere.. The missing glass to your set would probably be either pink or clear glass.

Thank you. I think you are probably right. I’ve got a lot to find out about glass and other people’s advice and knowledge is always a good place to start.

Are we sure about the King's Lynn Harlequin glasses?

Found the harlequin set in carousel I mentioned earlier so I've posted it in Show and Tell.
