About Price & Kensington Potteries Ltd
Price & Kensington Potteries was formed in January 1962 by amalgamating Price Bros. and Kensington Pottery, both Arthur Wood subsidiaries. It made earthenware at Top Bridge Works, Longport, until 2003. After the Arthur Wood Group entered administration, Rayware bought the brand and production moved abroad.
