We just parked at the Andover Inn today when we went to the Addison Art Gallery at the Academy.
There are a number of old mill buildings in Andover. I live a half mile from the old flannel manufacturing mill buildings in the village of Ballardvale where Skeet was invented by Davies and W H Foster.
The checkering pattern (design) on your forend is not how it would have originally been done… and the drop points on the stock behind the locks were ‘only’ done on Grade-3 and higher.
