[BRADBURY7308]

Been unable to resize this platter down so i cant show it off very well but have toaken a small portion picture of it, The piece was in a local charity shop next to a couple of pieces that were frank thrower pieces and just thought i havent seen that design before so bought it for £2.50 the other thing is it has a small impressed f in a circle on the design is it spooky or or a real dartington piece??? 12" diameter

Not Dartington as far as I know.

The scene does look quite Nordic, snow and sledges or am I seeing things?

Definitely not Dartington, though probably made in the same way as the cast pieces. These are very common in the charity shops.
