Your thoughts please.

Any suggestions please as to what the word is next to the red cross. I've inverted it as it makes it easier to read, but I still can't get it.

Thirty?

The 'c' in the line above splits the word in two.

Not 100% though.

How old is the bride?

Thirty was my first thought as well.

Now you've said that BH I can see what you mean and also think it is Thirty also. The writing is awful, can you believe that the first two words of the first line are Margaret Westminster. I only found that out as I found the marriage bond and it was as plain as anything what the groom's parish was. Thank you.

Sorry, I nipped the brides age off, she is of 21 years and upwards!

 

[Sis]

I wonder why they put the groom's age but just said 21 years and upwards for the bride!

Thank you lovely people. Amazing what fresh eyes can see, I've been researching all day! I think I'll go have a cuppa now

As a latecomer to the party (the doors are closed, the cleaners are in and the decorations are being taken down) can I say "thirty" as well?
