One of two capstans from bygone days that stand on Whitby pier. It has taken a battering from coastal elements as you can see and seems to change colour every few years.
Better on black
Thank you for all your lovely comments and favs all are appreciated and welcome
Such a gungy find - so full of character with the rusty parts oozing the rusty red stain on the white painted surface - must be a fav find for a photographer !
