 Angella Rodgers
A researcher of Gibbs and Canning of Tamworth for many years, she is keen to share her research, and to receive any help others might offer. Her main interest is the terracotta and faience found on buildings, but she also gathers information on the factory and its other products. Her principal aim is to regularly increase the list of buildings with Gibbs and Canning architectural ceramics (which at the time of writing stands at 266.) This ambition also includes the acquisition of pictures of as many as possible.

Tile Collectors

Paul Pitkin
I have a very modest collection of tiles. Some 3- 400 tiles, fairly eclectic but mainly interested in Carter of Poole [as I live there!] and of course Packard & Ord, Particularly the Trays. Also have a number of other tiles of various periods which I enjoy looking at. Always open to offers of exchange or purchase of the above products and also if any TACS member is in the area, give me a call, always happy to chat “Tiles”, —it is probably one of the most insular of collecting subjects and not the most social of activities.
