RE: RE: Autons of Leyburn

Hi, I live in Darlington which isn't that far from Leyburn and have been given quite a few pieces of pottery of local scenes with W.AUTON CHINA ROOMS LEYBURN on the base.Out of interest I've scoured the net and couldn't find anything relating to them until reading your post. What an interesting read it is, thank you so much.
