Yet another Cooke for a Pub

 

Alfred Compton a publican from Barnsbury Terrace in London ordered from Thomas Cooke & Sons in 1864 an achromatic 3.75 inch telescope with a focal length of 4 feet. 

The telescope was being sent to the London shop at Southampton Street from where it would be collected.
