That's it! Thank you Ekimp - problem solved! They certainly consider it to be continental and that does make a lot of sense!

More discussion and I am still unsure as to whether English or continental. To me, the high foot suggests continental but could be early English, the stem could certainly be English or continental but the general shape and size of the bowl suggests early English. Keep the ideas coming please!
