Rosemary Wren was born at Oxshott, Surrey in 1922.
Her mother was Denise Wren and her birth came just two years

who also had a pottery at Oxshott.
After serving her country in the Women's Land Army
during the Second World War she started potting at Oxshott.
In 1970 her partnership with Peter Crotty started,
and when her mother died the couple took over Oxshott Pottery
and moved it to Devon, then Scotland.
Rosemary is best known for her stoneware models, notably birds.
