#ANVIL WEIGHT MARKINGS 112 CRACK#

Postman (with John and Julia Hatfield) The only flaw that this anvil has is a small crack around the rear foot. Source: The Mousehole Forge by Richard A. All Mousehole anvils are pretty well 'handmade'. The first number is whole hundredweight, or 112 lb increments, the second is quarter-hundredweights, or 28-lb increments, and the last number is straight pounds. Mousehole Forge contined to use water power (heave or tilt hammers) long after other manufactures switched to mechanical hammers. On English anvils like Peter Wright, Mousehole, and so on, the weight markings are in the old hundredweight system. T is a coastal English town named Mousehole and it was well known as the site of a brief French invasion about the time the forge was started. In England a bend in a river with a deep spot is known as a mousehole and Mousehole Forge was located at such as spot. The square handling holes in an old anvil are called mouseholes. I thought I would post some of the prices.

There were fifty plus anvils in the auction. I attended an anvil and tool auction last month. The origins of the name of Mousehole is not certain. This is a little off the thread, but I think a number of you would be interested. Mousehole Forge was one of the last British anvil makers to change from the old style to the modern (more blocky) feet. Weight markings are in the British stone system to w the first represents multiples of 112 (1/20th long ton), the second multiples of 28 and the third remaining pounds. Sometimes all which remains of the logo is the dots. The following information tells about the different casting stamps: Mousehole Forge anvils can be dated from their logos: (These are all cicra - about - dates and the words would be stacked): 1780 - 1795: MOUSEHOLE 1795 - 1820: C&A MOUSEHOLE 1820 - 1835: M&H ARMITAGE MOUSEHOLE 1835 - 1854: HENRY ARMITAGE MOUSEHOLE 1854 - 1875: M&H ARMITAGE MOUSEHOLE FORGE 1878: BROOKS & COOPER MOUSEHOLE FORGE SHEFFIELD WARRANTED (with the outline of a mouse and HOLE for the first time) 1879: M&H ARMITAGE MOUSEHOLE FORGE SHEFFIELD WARRANTED (mouse) HOLE PATENT 1880: M&H ARMITAGE MOUSE HOLE FORGE (mouse) HOLE WARRANTED 1895: M&H ARMITAGE (mouse) HOLE SHEFFIELD 1896: M&H ARMITAGE MOUSEHOLE FORGE SHEFFIELD WARRANTED PATENT (mouse) HOLE 1911: M&H ARMITAGE MOUSEHOLE FORGE SHEFFIELD ENGLAND WARRNANTED (mouse) HOLE PATENT 1927-1933?: OWEN-THOMAS THE OLD FORGE SHEFFIELD ENGLAND Notes: - C&A = Cockshutt & Armitage - M&H = Morgan and Henry -Mousehole Forge is the only known manufacturer to use dots/periodsbetween the weight numbers, such as 1.
