grate; fret

Maker
Grahamston Iron Co
Description
Front grate with lattice pattern design on the front finished in a metallic brown lustre enamel. It is in the original cardboard box and comes with an ashpan and key.
Bought in the 1950s, but never used and kept in the garden shed at the donor's address. Hence it still has the working instructions.
