Why thank you. I do like your often very strange anagrams.
Confused inquiry made, by one Roman builder to another, upon discovering a substantial part of the order for seventy-five door-joints is missing, and suggesting they copy from extant examples: “We’ll twin ½ the 50 hinges, ’kay?”

If this one has as an anagram, what I'm figuring it might have -- it's some awfully long name -- ??

Digby & Sowton
Very prompt, and correct -- you deserve next go for this one, and no mistake ! ("New chapter", etc. -- Digby & Sowton Sta. is a fairly recent creation -- a little way to its north there was, 1908 -- 48, Digby & Clyst St. Mary Halt.)
