West View of the Cast Iron Bridge – like bridge 22
Cornfoot, Carr and Co (1832–1838), North Shields – large version

Attributed to Cornfoot, Carr and Co (1832–1838) or
Carr and Patton, Low Lights Pottery (1838–1846), North Shields – large version
This transfer was almost certainly used under both of the above partnerships at North Shields. In the absence of a dated inscription it is hard to attribute the jugs below to one partnership or the other. The later items are more heavily potted and tend to have darker lustre.
