This is marked 'SRY' on the reverse for 'Surrey Yeomanry', with the maker's name 'Thomasson & Co.' stamped on the leather retaining strap. There is a broad arrow stamp, together with a faint date stamp (15?) to the inside. Both the MK 5 and 6 pistols would have fitted this.

This is a piece straight from the Raj! The 'I' with a broad arrow stamp dates it as a post-Mutiny piece from the era when the British government acquired control of India from the East India Company on the basis that they had failed to foresee, let alone successfully contain, the Mutiny, which British troops were needed to suppress.

These calipers, for measuring the circumference of wire and rope, are made of boxwood and brass. The maker's name (as above) is stamped into the piece along with the calibration and there is a small handpunched broad arrow at the base, indicating a Royal Navy issue item.

The pouch now has a king's crown badge, but is almost certainly of earlier vintage than the badge, on account of the tin liners, which were typically provided to hold paper cartridges in good shape in the Victorian period. Such a pouch could have held ammunition for a Wesley Richards monkeytail carbine of the capping, breach loader variety.
