Thank you, Dean! This gun was made in 1889 and that would put the facility at 8 Whittall Street or 15 St. Mary’s Row as they had two locations at this time, according to Lawrence P. Shelton in his book “J.P. Clabrough Birmingham Gunmaker”. I look forward to seeing what Drew Hause has to say!

Here’s more info on this particular gun:

Sorry guys - not paying attention.
Dean is correct, and I think it is "3 Iron English Best" Laminated Steel which was the big winner in the Birmingham Proof House Trial

It carries Birmingham proof 1887-1896
