BRAMELD, Rockingham, Swinton, Yorkshire, c.1810-1820

Rockingham Works, Swinton, Yorkshire. This pottery is more correctly names “Swinton Pottery” until 1826. John & Wm. Brameld became proprietors in 1806. In 1813, William died and pottery direction was assumed by Thomas, George & John, sons of Wm. The factory was located on the estate of the Marquis of Rockingham, so once again, as in 1745, the pottery took the name ‘Rockingham Works’. Financial disaster caused the closing in 1842, and the end to all porcelain and earthenware manufacturing.
