Hi
I am trying to work out what the middle bit is in the occupation of John Nicholls, born 1797, Warwickshire, Birmingham.
I can see Patten ______ Maker, any help would be appreciated.
1851 census
Piece, 2055

Patten- Any of various kinds of thick-soled footwear; esp. (in pl.) wooden clogs which are slipped on the feet without fastening, or raised platform-type shoes.

Hi and thanks for the help
It certainly looks like Clog, think I will go with Patten Clog Maker.
Thanks David
