Rare Skelton triangular hoe

All the details

A very rare triangular hoe made by C T Skelton of Sheffield, part of the name can just be read on the head. Skelton started busines in Sheffield in 1880 and then merged with Brades in 1962 so that would make the age of this hoe certainly before 1962 possibly as early as 1880?? There is evidence of some historic woodworm at the top of the handle as shown on the photo otherwise sound. Overall length 145cm, blade side length 16cm. The National Trust collections website has the head of one made by Finch Foundry in Devon, otherwise they are very difficult to find.This is definitely one for the collector
