(Quote from Robin Sharples ) Rare to find a forged Portsmouth Pattern as the vast majority were cast examples by John Brooks... The Portsmouth Pattern was originally designed by the Royal Navy in the mid 1800s for use in the Naval Dockyards... Most of the major anvil makers produced this pattern in the mid to late 1800s including Peter Wright and Mousehole Forge. During WW2 John Brooks produced large volumes for the military and continued to produce the Pattern into the 1980s.. One of the last forged PW/Nash anvils dated 1943 was a Portsmouth. Could this be one of the last Peter Wright - Nash production forged Portsmouth Anvils out there ????

It may seem all I do is rebuild anvils - blacksmithing equipment, and while that is taking up more of my time lately, at the heart of it , I'm a welder. Metal is my mantra. My iron intake is off the charts , and I may have a sunburn in the winter ....

How cool is that? This large double arch would be a prefect anvil for a operation that required multiple steps , 2 hardie holes and 4 pritchel holes give you lots of options , AND it has a side table which has been hardfaced, for the smaller bracketry.
