Thanks

When I got to the last pic and realized the SCALE of that honker I just about xxxx ! Can't help with the ID but that is one fine anvil...... B)

I have expect the next photo to be of the wheel barrow failing under the weight. How many people did it take to move that thing! Great find, what did it cost?

It's clearly English-made (given the weight markings).  A Peter Wright??

Greetings Thin,

 

Looks like a Wilkinson to me.... Look for the crossed hot dogs... For sure early English

The weight is about 421lbs/191kg according to the anvil weight calculator.

 

It took 4 of us to load it.

 

Most of the Blacksmith tools i get from the local scrapyard or info from them about the were-about and pay mostly per weight.

 

Thanks i will look for the id marks.

That's a sweet find, congratulations on a couple counts. First you now have a great anvil and second but far from least, you saved it from the scrapper. A 3-3-18, what a beast, it'd sure look good in my shop.

Greetings Thinus,

 

Ya gonna need   a bigger wheel borrow..  I think that one would look best in my shop...  Glad you saved the old girl

 

Lucky you    Jim
