Blue pottery ashtray in the shape of a cockerel made for The Cockpit Inn, Eton by Clee Pottery. This was acquired in 2009 because it represents two businesses in Eton: The ancient public house, The Cockpit Inn which opened in about 1420 and closed in about 2000, though the building still stands on the high street. Also Clee Pottery was based in Eton. The ashtray is probably about 1960-1970
