Description
This is a double-headed spanner, with an additional full nut-hole in the handle. It is marked 'DARRACQ' on the side of the handle. Darracq was a motor vehicle manufacturing company founded in France in 1896 and established in the UK in 1905 - this spanner was thus probably for a vehicle. The spanner originally came from Begbroke Farm in Begbroke, Oxfordshire.
