Powell and Jones Shrewsbury Pocket Watch

[skeeterm5]

Well to my complete delight Mrs Skeeter gave me a silver pocket watch from 1884 for Christmas.

It was made by Powell and Jones Shrewsbury, I have been trying to find out about them but google is not really throwing up anything. Does anybody know about them or can point me in the right direction?

It won't have been made by Powell and Jones, just (I've forgot the word. Bought and had their name added to the dial) Take the back off and look at the movement it's always the best bit for me and you've a better chance of finding the manufacturer out as it's usually stamped into the movement. Pictures would be nice too.

Thanks, will do that when I get back from family visiting duties today.
