Wow! Antique-shop.com forums are in the big #1 spot on Google for the search term "antique shop forum", for 4 years running!Thanks to YOU.
Thanks Bigwull, Ipcress & gg27 for your notes. The only reference I can find anywhere to these markings or this pattern is this Minton drainer. Do you have any idea if many potteries used the same pattern or is it now most likely that it is a minton??warmest regardsJoolshttp://www.blueandwhite.com/museum.asp?m=Minton&p=English+Scenery
gg27,, We are all wrong occassionally !!
Now if it was one of these Minton cheese stands...then I could understand your reluctance for using it...these change hands for up to £1300+...but the blue & white semi china ones they can sell for as little as £30...

Don't ask how I know.
