Modified 18th C Hanger ?

Hi Jim,
Many thanks for your interest and info as always. Have been doing some digging since my original post and I think this may be the '1742' type hanger, the '1751' has a 'basket' and there is no evidence on the knuckleguard of my example of bars having been removed. The grip on mine is wire wrapped wood which I reckon points to the '1742' as the '1751' has, from what I can see, a spiral brass grip. Am looking forward to further input. Thanks again for your interest.
My Regards,
Norman.
