There's another example on the following page, which looks like Inst.

Could it be short for Inspector?

Thank you but I think he is more likely to be this one in 1851 born Prudhoe which is in the same parish as Wylam
HO107 2404fo 607p95 this one is a coal merchant.
it seems Liddell with all its variations is a popular name in the region
