is this "Stourport" ?
« on: Sunday 21 June 09 15:26 BST (UK) »
got one here, which has puzzled me, but looking at it now I am thinking it could be Stourport? is stourport part of worcester? I thought it was staffordshire?

Its from an 1851 entry for an Alfred Hill (c1830) who i cant find a birth for or any census pre his marriage in 1849 I wa hoping I could find his fam if I can find where hes from lol
