Hi All.  Hope someone can help.  Found this recently in the North West of England and I think it could be a Llangollen Pottery piece.  Marked clearly MADE IN WALES there is also an impressed/incised mark on the base that could(?) be Powell Pottery Wales. I've read somewhere that the earlier pieces were marked like this.  However as the mark is not that clear I could easily be putting 1 & 1 together and getting 5.  It measures 7 cms tall x 10 cms across at the widest part (edge of spout to end of handle).  Any help much appreciated.

Clearer here - it certainly does look like "Pembs."

Pembs is short for Pembrokeshire so it could have been a pottery situated in that part of Wales.
