Bench No.8. L=82.5", W= 19", Ht. = 29.5" with three drawers with holes for siz other drawers. (in press room) [Accession file description]
Chest of drawers used as a work bench in a tin smiths workshop. There are holes for nine drawers but only three drawers remain. The top has had two square holes cut into it. One of the holes has three holes around it and the other has four, these may have been to allow tools to be bolted into the the square holes. There are three other holes in the work top. A part of the bottom of the front of the central drawer has broken off and been lost in the past and the hole has been repaired by fixing a piece of wood to the back of the drawer front. There are wood knobs on the fronts of the drawers. Two battens have been nailed across the end on the right hand side.[RP; 28/11/2008]
