Poole clay was used for making clay Pipes "Early pipe manufacture was centered on London. Between 1624 and 1638 London held a monopoly for the importation of tobacco. It also had, until 1640, the sole use of suitable clay. The iron-free Poole clay was especially prized." www.kalendar.demon.co.uk/otherpipes.htm
