The Scott’s pottery was one of the most important producers of lusterware from the early 1800s. Four generations of the Scott family were involved in the running of the Southwick Pottery, most of them with the same first name of Anthony (Anthony Scott I (1764-1847), Anthony Scott II (1802-1882), and Anthony Scott III (1847-1897.). The company struggled in the 1870s and later succumbed in 1896.
