On a lighter note .
I found this a while ago and collected it with some things I've taken from the farm for safekeeping while the fires rage .
It is made of bronze and quite heavy for its size . The external thread is very fine , the spigot is barbed in order to hold a tube of sorts and there is a small lug that looks to have held some type of chain or safety cord . I found it about six inches deep under an apple tree
