[Afamilyatwar-list] Utility ware

[Hanna Nixon]

As far as I can tell......nerd alert....the first series or at least few episodes had pink petal ware. Grindley? ...then went to the woods ware iris blue. I think Sheila and David ended up with the pink in their house. And it also looked like the same bread bin was used for every house as the worn letters were the same. Apologies.....in advance...I used to work as continuity for some filming in uk! 

Best wished Hanna

The Woods pottery is often seen in cafe shots and similar. Last year she sold off a huge collection of Woods Beryl to a couple who were starting up a 40s themed cafe.
