In 1879 Simon Fielding (d.1906) put his life savings into the Railway Works in Sutherland Street, Stoke, Stoke-on-Trent. But within a few years, the bailiffs came in and it was Simon's son Abraham, who stepped in to save the company.
In 1912 the Railway Works was renamed The Devon Pottery and Fielding developed the famous 'Crown Devon' name.
