In 1978 Poole Pottery issued a series of plates designed by Barbara Linley Adams and entitled "British Garden Birds". These beautiful stoneware plates depicted images, in relief, of some of Britains favourite garden birds including The Blackbird, The Robin, The Blue Tit, The Song Thrush, The Swallow and The Wren. Each of these plates was issued in a limited edition of 5000 and its individual number and additional information it clearly marked on the reverse of the plate.
Like most of Barbara Linley Adams work, these plates have now become hotly collected. Look out for them. They are both a joy for the present and an investement for the future.
