• In the early 1950s Arthur Wood sold the business to the Keele Street Pottery Group. 

• The 1951 Pottery Gazette lists the following officers: Managing Director - Gerald F. Wood; Secretary & Sales Manager - J. Sedgley; Decorating Manager - L. Owen; Works Director - A. Hulse. 

• The 1956 Pottery Gazette records the company as 'a member of the K.S.P. Group'. Officers were: Chairman - S. R. Hogg; Managing Director - C. G. Bowers; Directors - R. A. Harding, J. A. Orme, G. T. Basnett. 

• Around 1958 the St. George Works were taken by William Henry Amison (a former employee of Collingwood China) - he established Clayton Bone China Ltd. It is likely that Collingwood China Ltd. stopped production at this date.
