A further label has 'Cranston's Nurseries, Kingsacre, Hereford'. This could be related to the single leaf at bottom left of sheet, or it could be the source of the planted material.

I am not good on Sorbus but my guess would be that it is part of a single gathering.
Cranston's Nurseries must have been the forerunner of the huge Wyevale Nurseries now at Kingsacre, Hereford
