Comments:

This lathe was recently listed in Whangarei, Northland, New Zealand (it's not mine). I've posted this as there are no products of this manufacturer listed on VM (so far).

It was manufactured by Arthur Firth, of Cleckheaton, Yorkshire, UK. Tom Senior was an employee of Arthur Firth and late bought the company (I don't seem to be able to change the "True Manufacturer" setting on the page).

There is little information on model, but the seller gives the following sizes:
900 mm between centres (2' 11.5");
130 mm swing over bed (5 1/8");
95 mm swing over carriage (3 3/4");
22 mm spindle bore (7/8").
