Based
at premises in Treville Street, Plymouth the Society had a long working life in
this field, bottles found include aqua glass mineral bottles embossed PCS Ltd
Plymouth and the rare champagne shaped stoneware ginger beer (which seems to
have been in use until the 1940s judging by fragments found amongst blitz
rubble in dump sites). Most eye catching is probably the purple topped foot
warmer bearing the company’s details.
The Treville Street premises have long since
disappeared during development of the area to create Bretonside Bus Station.
The
company was also involved with prescription chemists which are listed
separately in the chemist section
