Marks used on ware for identification:

Some ware bears the date 1793 - this is the claimed date the original Cyples pottery started and does not relate in any way to the age of the ware manufactured by J T Fell.

The works that J T Fell operated from were erected in 1881, taking their name from the original Cyples pottery.
