Paramo Bench Vice
Destined for the scrap man.Paramo bench vice found behind a wheelie-bin and destined for the melting pot.
F. Parramore and Sons ran a cast iron foundry which went on to produce vices under the "Paramo" brand at Caledonian Works in Chapeltown. It's distance from the centre of Sheffield meant it played a key role during WW2 when inner-city factories were razed or feared they might be.
