That's nice Mark. Hard to tell what from pic. no size and need more views.  What does the writing say ? looks like a name and place.

Thought I could see Bennett and wondered if the place was Woolf------   Do you reckon there's still a place with that name.
Got to be by Woolscastle, I reckon.

That's a cracker Mark well done Wink Yes I think your right about it being Wolfsdale as in Camrose  Church yard there's a gravestone which reads....

"Sacred to the memory of John Bennett late of Wolfsdale in this parish who departed this life
May 16th 1820 aged 82 years ; also of Ann, beloved wife of the above named J. Bennett, who
departed this life March 23rd 1856 aged 76"

Now I'm not saying it's the same J Bennett but it shows the family was there Wink

a lovely find indeed. if the family are still in the area, perhaps consider returning it to them ... then you can ask about the toy boy scenario!  Grin Grin Grin
