Description

Hoping the brains trust can help us identify if this huge iron strong box is a Colebrookdale as it has no markings. It’s a massive piece weighing over 440 lb (200kg) and the dimensions are 30 inches (760mm) (h) x 36 inches (920mm) (w) x 24.5 inches (620 mm) (d).

Seperate cast iron pieces with huge rivets into an inner panel. (Not a single casting)

many thanks
