Leonard Stockley (Weymouth) Staffs11Leonard Stockley (Weymouth) Staf_s10Hi,
I purchased this dragon pattern slipware jug last week. Looks like a copy of the old North Staffordshire pottery style. I can see the makers name quite clearly, I think the place name is Weymouth and part of the top name could be Pottery but not sure. I have googled without success. I wonder if someone on this super board can shed some light please.
Thanks
Bryn

Queen, slab-built and slipware decorated.
Inscribed L. Stockley Weymouth on the base.
Possibly dating from the 70s.

According to the person I got it from there's a short (dumpy) King that goes with it.

Wonderful potter, I always loved going to his shop on Weymouth seafront as a child, it took me a few years of saving pocket money to afford these, entitled 'Knight Errant and Lady Courtsy' sadly he died a few years ago. He's one of the makers that inspired me to work with clay, very underrated, you can find pieces for £5, although the figures are more desirable.

Leonard Stockley (Weymouth) Empty Len Stockley Fishermen figures

Post by heatherafc June 10th 2015, 9:38 pm

Hello
I am looking for information on Len Stockley (Weymouth) fishermen figures. I have a collection at home in Spain (hence no photos posted). I cannot find any info on the iternet about them. I bought them in the 80,s and 90,s in the little studio opposite Weymouth Beach.
I have just recently returned there and the shop is gone and read that sadly Len Stockley had died in 2013. I would love to know if anyone has a collection of these figures and photos please. I would be interested in finding out how many different fishermen figures he made. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Forum, Heather, and let's hope someone will be able to assist.

There is already a thread about Len Stockley here at

https://www.20thcenturyforum.com/t4378p15-leonard-stockley-weymouth

but nothing about the figures you have. However, there are a few other figures shown.

A small jug standing about 120mm tall.

The potter seems to have used as many forms of decoration as s/he could think of, but who is the potter?

Your assistance in identifying is much appreciated.

All the best,

I have only just come across your query.  I have a collection of about twenty Len Stockley figures, half of which are fishermen; the others are what I call  "fisherman's wives", "local Yokels" and "men of the road.  I don't know much about Len Stockley or the Weymouth Pottery.  I bought most of my figures in the 1980s from a flower shop / gift shop in Corfe Castle or a souvenir shop at Lulworth Cove.  Are you still interested in photographs?

Are these not Christmassy? Is that a word? I have a theory that this is a chess set.

Interesting. The king and queen are rare but not uncommon. This is the first time I've seen the third one. I'm guessing it's a Bishop. No pawns have been seen, which should be relatively common, so I doubt it's a chess set, but, if the horseback riders are castles then maybe that was the original idea.

That is my thinking yes. It would make sense that people would buy the Kings and Queens the most. Bishops, Knights and Rooks would naturally be less common. Perhaps the riders are Knights so we need Rooks (Castles) and perhaps the smaller set as posted are the pawns. Another thing is if you kook at your queen posted earlier it the reverse of mine. Could this represent Black / White Pieces.... It's only a theory  Pondering

White Queen?
