    Default Probable 17th English Century Box Lock

    Hello People, I thought that you may be interested in a large (7 inches long) early box lock that I bought a while back. It is a Ward lock of a sort, but has a quite complex set of levers to detach the lock plate. I am estimating it as 17th Century, but it may well be earlier. It is made of iron and was probably a custom made (?) lock for somebody. If anyone has seen one before or has any other ideas I would like to hear from you. Cheers, Alan.
