Bath time

Glazed fireclay bath by Trotter, Haines & Corbett, Stourbridge. There can't be many of these left.
The works was started in 1850 at Brettell Lane, Brierley Hill adjacent to the later Harrison & Pearson works. Around the turn of the twentieth century the Harrison & Pearson acquired a controlling interest in Trotter, Haines & Corbett Ltd. In the early 1930s Trotter Haines & Corbett, Harris & Pearson, Samuel Evers & Sons, Canal Works and Amblecote Works were all absorbed into the E. J, J, Pearson Company, creating at that time the largest refractories group in the Country.
