I am confident that you will be able to identify the impressed mark on this jam pot.

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.

Picked this up a while ago. It's clearly marked B and W but I would like some help please. The B looks like Bennett Coopers mark, and I've seen some dishes & platters with similar decoration. The W alongside it...I don't know. Can anyone tell me if I'm on the right track with Bennett Cooper.

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 it

Simple piece, I find the inner glaze rather pleasing.

Just an indented hole for a mark....

If anyone knows anything it would be appreciated, thanks

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.

Don’t know whether it’s of any use but in some research I did regarding a piece from Birkenhead Park Pottery I contacted Carla Pownall - she kindly confirmed her mark from her time there as a C with an underscored line
