Mystery Objects...at Milestones part two

Milestones Museum in Basingstoke is full of objects from Hampshire's past, from the Victorians to the Edwardians and through to the 1940s. For our grandparents and their parents, many of the objects you can see on display at Milestones would have been familiar, everyday things they would use around the home.

You'll find this week's objects in Kingdon's Ironmongers and they are all objects that might be found in a farmhouse or garden. Do you know what they are? What do you think they were used for? Find out the answers below!
