Old shotguns

I know this is a rifle forum but was just wondering if anyone has heard of a couple of guns my father in law has just been given. First one is a under and over " barasingha" and the other is a side by side " S. Troughton" supposed to have been made in Blackpool. Any info appreciated As I've never heard of them cheers

The Birmingham gun trade made guns for many hardware shops in the early part of the last century, they were then sold under the shops own name. Almost certainly thats were S Troughton has come from. There is quite a lot of info on the other one on the web,

Seems they make guns for some of the bigger names,
