Frost and Woods
Attached is a badge from the Smith Falls Frost and Woods plant which could trace its history back to 1839. Prior to the war the company was engaged in manufactured farm machinery and is perhaps best known for its wartime contract to produce 100,000 of No. 36 Grenades a month. The company closed its doors in 1955.

The makers names. First one was on the other limber and 2nd one is on my limber. The other limbers he had sold. Hard to make out but could be a F. Has a small C before the number and the towing hook? and tyres made in Canada.
Reg number on the one i bought is 29108 and on the other limber 29916.

Thank you Hanno for the link, i have sent an email.
Is there a manual on the limber or is it in part of the 25Pdr manual.
