Biographical Details
Berrisford’s mid-18th century tradecard, advertising chimneypieces, tables, monuments, statues, busts and all kinds of ornaments in marble ‘& Curious Chrystalline Substances, Done in the Best manner And at Reasonable Rates’ is preserved in the Heal Collection (BM PDL Heal 106.3). He may have been employed on masonry work at Okeover, Staffs, for his estimate for a patio survives in their archives.
