    Hello, I’m new to the forum but am hoping that someone will be able to help me identify the origins of an interesting plate I’ve bought. See picture - unless it’s a number it looks like it dates to 1837 and appears to refer to a name prefixed by St. (or Saint). Any clues?
    Cheers, Adrian

    Looks like a Parish Boundary marker. "St M S" will likely stand for St Mary Somethingorother.
