JAMES KENT LTD
or something sweeter!
In 1891
china wares began marking their china with “ENGLAND” and after 1921 with “Made
In...”.
Though many
potteries continued with or without these markings for 10s of years prior and
after these dates.
James Kent
pottery established in 1897 at Longton and was renamed James Kent Ltd in 1913.
It remained so until 1989 at which time
it was sold and the name also became the property of the new owners, Fenton.
Old Foley
was not produced until circa 1955 and Old Foley Pottery Ltd was used after 1955
through until 1989. The company was sold in 1981, taken over in 1985/6, and in
1987 was bought by County Potteries PLC. In 1989 it was renamed ‘Carlton &
Kent’ and went broke.
It was then sold again in 1989 and renamed
‘James Kent 1989 Ltd, then in 2006 the Old Foley Works were demolished and they
operated out of the Fole China Works but closed in 2008
