It is unclear why there appears a break in the trading dates for John Herbert? It just could be that John Herbert was employed by the Wm & Jn Rigby following their move to 24 Suffolk Street (1830)... when they proudly announce the inclusion of barrel making to their new manufactory?
In future blogs we will review some of the earlier 18th century gun barrel makers and the relevant proof marks found.
