Interestingly, the house still exists and is available to rent for weddings and other events.
It was made in the pottery of John and Richard Riley whose potteries operated from 1802 - 1828. It is in great condition, free of all chips and cracks. Glaze is entirely shiny and free of utensil scratching. On the back, there is a short line in the glaze only. It does not permeate the plate. The plate bears both the imprinted Riley stamp and a transfer stamp giving the name of the abode. |
