This was the Dronwal pattern number No.1595. It should stand 31 inches high and had either a red or green enamelled Heavy Malleable iron base, 7+1/2 inches X 7+1/2 inches. It would originally have had connections for 1/2,5/8 or 3/4″ hose. 1968 would have seen you paying 59s 6d for it, straight conversion is £2.95 in new money then – if one allows for RPI between now and 2013 and if they were still being made then £44.00 would potentially be what it could cost.
A very nice item Steve.
