Just a lathe for turning bobbins, in an old textile mill. The headstock and tailstock are typical of early wood turning lathes having a wooden bed, but this has an iron bed and automatic feed. I suspect that the lathe is an amalgam of various items. The bed is too narrow compared with the headstock and tailstock and carriage.
