Default Tire Rotation woes

Last winter I pulled my stock wheel/tires and put on my winter set-up.
I marked the front wheels so as to put them on the rear this spring.
Problem is yesterday when I go to switch back, it occurs to me that although I know which should go front/fear, I did not mark right/left thus I have a 50/50 chance of reversing rotation.
Is there a way to tell from wear which way the tire was rotating before I removed them?
Will it hurt the tires to be rotating the opposite way?
BTW the tires in question are PS2's with about 10K on them.
