About Ford & Sons (Crownford) Ltd
Oswald Shufflebottom purchased Ford & Sons in 1938 and renamed it Ford & Sons (Crownford) Ltd. The earthenware business moved temporarily to Royal Overhouse Pottery during the wartime concentration scheme, then returned to Newcastle Street, Burslem. Winding-up arrangements began in June 1964.
