They were made of red or brown clay decorated in white with slip-trailing moulded prunts, and heraldic motifs on applied pads of clay, which appear yellow under the lead glaze. Many of them bear dates and the potter's initials sometimes accompanied by or two other sets of initials presumably those of their owners. Twisted two-colour edges and white bun-shaped finials were features of the double-loop handles, usually, three or four (as here), but sometimes only two. The initials GR on this example stand for George Richardson who signed pots between 1642 and 1677, and was the first recorded potter to put the place name WROTHAM on his work - on an undated jug probably made in the 1640s, and one dated 1656, both in the Fitzwilliam Museum ( C.116-1928, and C.130-1928). He lived in Plott (St Mary's Platt), a hamlet, which was the centre of the potting industry in the manor of Wrotham. His house, 'work house', and accompanying land belonged to Nicholas Myller, who mentioned Richardson's occupation of them in his will in 1653. Richardson made his will in June 1687, and the inventory taken after his death shows that he lived in comfortable circumstances and had combined his potting trade with farming in a small way (for details, see Documentation, Semple, 2008). His wife Mary, who had predeceased him a year earlier, was a member of the Hubble family of potters, and Richardson's son-in-law, Nicholas Hubble junior, was an executor of his will. A tyg by Nicholas Hubble senior dated 1654 is in the Fitzwilliam, (C.117-1928). reference term-113347 adlib-term-113347 b3865e14-c2dc-3722-935d-b7697edeab4e 17th Century, Mid reference term-22454 adlib-term-22454 6083cc21-8ac0-39a2-98bc-1d93c3435b5d Commonwealth reference term-115311 adlib-term-115311 09e93629-5a1a-3974-b511-61bb4cbd8f18 literal England England country Wrotham red-brown and white reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware Height cm 15.6 reference media-35482 adlib-media-35482 afaf57b2-07e6-366c-8579-a0794358685c jpeg aa/aa7/C_128_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926747141 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/mid_C_128_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1702926747141 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/C_128_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926747141 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/preview_C_128_1928_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1702926747141 1 image 0 media image reference media-35483 adlib-media-35483 5b881ad6-b3cc-31e1-b786-204a93833579 jpeg aa/aa7/C_128_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926441143 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/mid_C_128_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1702926441143 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/C_128_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926441143 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/preview_C_128_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1702926441143 1 image 1 media image reference media-35484 adlib-media-35484 60502984-13c4-345d-9698-fc136d40101b jpeg aa/aa7/C_128_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926669130 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/mid_C_128_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1702926669130 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/C_128_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926669130 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/preview_C_128_1928_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1702926669130 1 image 2 media image reference media-35485 adlib-media-35485 2e3571a8-b013-38e1-97cb-f2064be63a8f jpeg aa/aa7/C_128_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926357309 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/mid_C_128_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1702926357309 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/C_128_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1702926357309 1 image jpeg aa/aa7/preview_C_128_1928_284_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1702926357309 1 image 3 media image reference term-91244 adlib-term-91244 a6c14d03-be5d-3758-9972-a4f93f18f489 tyg drinking vessel history note Probably George Weare Braikenridge (1775-1856); his son, the Revd.
