Len Castle shallow bowl with pourer Lc110

Sandy from Rainbows Relics called me down to look at this lovely bowl. She admits to not knowing a lot about pottery but thought she might have a Len Castle. I didn't know the mark so I sent it on to Kat who says it looks like the 1950-2002 mark from the potters marks book. Now I've seen that mark I think so too.

Any other opinions?

I'll take more photos when I go back. I just snapped these to show Kat.

I would say it's 100% a Len Castle pot as everything points to this.
The shape, the glaze, the LC mark. Lovely.

Thanks Kat and Ev. As I am running late I have just rung Ian with the good news.

There is one very similar, looks a bit deeper, for sale on tm atm:

(Thanks Kat for editing my date: I misread your email, and misread a second time when I checked the link.)
