No Cathy but you're right, it's a piece of domestic ironmongery.

Wendy got it right. These hooks hung on what used to be called the picture rail which ran round the room just under the ceiling.
Now we need another object!

Iโll hazard a guess at a circular feed trough?

And you'd be right Gloria. It was for a certain farm animal and for a certain reason. Can you guess what it was?

Sorry Gloria but no. I shan't let it hang on. It's a bull trough. They were made round so the bull could roll them round the paddock without damaging them when they got bored. Bit like putting toys in a budgie cage......

Is it to get metal rim off old fashioned wagon wheels.
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS

Well done Gloria, you got it and not many people would know that nowadays because the spring steel split rims it was designed to get behind and remove is illegal now.
Next object?
