I apologise for the poor quality of these photos but would be very grateful if anyone had any comments on identification.  Could they be Richardson?

Not my area but they could be Richardson, lookin at Charles Hajdamach's book they could also be Stevens and Williams, Webb or another Stourbridge or English maker.
