Oldfarmer Sidelock Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 285	In 1880 in the Uk the average farm worker received �41.52 per year, general labourer �55.88, A clergyman �272.30 and a solicitor �1600.00. This is a page from a trade fair catalogue which Worcester museum gave us as part of our research in to the Perrins business in Worcester. It would appear that Perrins guns were probably on a par with Westly Richards guns of the time, so I guess in real terms the buying power of a farm works wage today would still buy a similar gun today.
