James Wood Census Occupation
« on: Tuesday 08 August 17 06:44 BST (UK) »
Could someone please help me identify what the occupation of James Wood, aged 15, in the 1861 census could be?

I THINK the second word COULD be Paintworks, but I stand to be corrected on that. I simply cannot make out what the preceding work is. Any help there would be very gratefully received

Thank you very much for that. What threw me was the D, which I simply could not work out.

I could not see the R in printworks.

Thank you for you good eyesight.
