A group lot of three vintage brass firefighting components, primarily manufactured by Kerr and Company Limited of Northwich, Cheshire. The collection includes an Empire Streamform Diffuser fire hose nozzle featuring a hexagonal central section stamped with Empire Streamform Diffuser, Kerr Northwich, and patent application number 5866 41. The second item is a cylindrical pump-action canister, likely a portable chemical fire extinguisher or sprayer, constructed with a brass body and a curved copper delivery tube fitted with a manual thumb-screw valve. Faint incised lettering on the body identifies it as a Kerr product. The third component is a tapered brass branch pipe nozzle terminating in a simple circular aperture, with a ribbed hose connector and four integral lugs at the proximal end for manual grip and operation. All items are constructed from heavy-gauge brass and represent mid-20th-century British industrial firefighting apparatus.
