Re: Tim Holloway, Farnham
Not by Kenneth Quick. He started at the Leach Pottery straight from school aged 14 in 1945 and stayed there for 10 years before starting his own pottery up Tregenna Hill. There he generally made tableware in a light stoneware and in earthenware for 5 years. Following this he took a six months teaching post in the States and upon his return to the UK asked Bernard if he could return to the Leach Pottery. This he did and stayed there until 1963 when Bernard helped him to go and study in Japan with Shoji Hamada. Unfortunately, a month before he was due to come home he drowned in a swimming accident. He was 32 years old and so no later mark or change of style.

Re: Tim Holloway, Farnham
Finally had a positive ID for this mark (in the opening post, and the one off pinterest which was wrongly IDed as Kenneth Quick). The info is from a fellow student at Farnham who knew the potter personally -
Made by Tim Holloway, who worked at Wrecclesham Pottery, Farnham with the two Reg Harris's, before going to Farnham College; graduating in 1979. He set up a pottery just outside Farnham, potting first in stoneware and then in earthenware, and decorating pieces in Cardew/Wenford Bridge style. Unfortunately he couldn't make a living in pottery and moved on to other things

It's 13.5 inches in diameter and I probably should know the mark.
