Established in 1921, on the site of the Dale Hall Brick & Tile Works, by Harry Wood (who, at this time, was chairman of Wood & Sons)and Ellgreave pottery operated as an associate company of Wood & Sons. A number of the Wood family were on the board of directors. Around 1923 Charlotte Rhead, who had been working at Wood and Sons since 1912, designed for the Ellgreave Pottery and had a considerable hand in modernising their designs. Much of her work was sold by Ellgreave under the trade name of Lottie Rhead Ware. The Ellgreave pottery also produced the ordinary or tubby Toby Jug around 1925, painting the jugs in bright colours such as orange, blue and yellow, which made it necessary to use the enamel over glaze technique. The production of Toby jugs fell into decline and was not revived until the early 1950s. In 1937 the pottery was a Listed Exhibitor at the British Industries Fair and were exhibiting Ellgreave Tiles. Comprehensive range of White Body Tile and Faience Fireplaces. They exhibited "Several departures from orthodox ideas, including one Suite having Built-in Aquarium, giving revolutionary method of fireplace decoration". In 1953 Ellgreave were advertising that they produced "More than 1,500,000 teapots per year" as well as "jugs, coffee pots and cocoa jugs in Rockingham and Samian, Fancies and comic animals". The Ellgreave Pottery was originally sited in Ellgreave Street, Longport, Burslem. In 1967 the company was put into voluntary liquidation, along with a couple of other Wood companies. Production moved to the recently modernised Trent and New Wharf Pottery where the name Ellgreave continued.
