Looking through the Railway & Canal Historical Society Weaver Collection, I noticed this 1964 view of Warwick Bar that shows in the background Curzon Street Goods, the LNWR Signalbox at Proof House and the Nova Scotia Brewery.
This brewery would seem to be quite large.

Hi Jason, I have a very large collection of memorabilia that I will finally leave to one of the Holder family.Hi all,i found this on Sunday on a metal detecting rally in barnt green in evershem in The midlands,in the middle of a farmers field.After looking up the name i found this group and im hoping any of you members could give me any information on this badge/motif/emblem. Many thanks jason
Thanks Dave, I thank-you for your information on this and that would give me the thought that Sir John Holder may have owned his own horses and equipment in harvesting for the brewery in Birmingham.Hi Lynn,
I would think it was a blinker brass from the horse's harness.
Brasses with the company name were quite common.
Kind regards
Dave
