Name plate from a seaweed factory cart

The seaweed-processing factory at Middleton/Sandaig ran from 1863 to 1901, requiring the use of horse-drawn carts to ship the raw seaweed and processed product about the island. The factory manager complained that haulage charges were excessive, despite there being 600 horses and carts on the island, but must have acquired some carts onto which company plates were attached.
