I can easily make out a lathe, vertical mill, horizontal mill and power hacksaw/shaper. Probably more.

Usually used on ships, Lein Weber also made one quite similar. You missed the shaper! It is hard to see how the vertical head would have been used, I suspect that is a drill press, there must have been a table that attached to the T slotted pad below it.

A shame to see it moldering away- Imagine that thing all fixed up with a nice coat of paint
The vertical head motor is missing, unless it was shaft-driven from underneath- I'll have to look up that brand

If it's in England someone is probably already restoring it. Have you seen some of the cars they fix up?

The marriage of a lathe and one or more metal working machines has always been a bit of a Rube Goldberg proposition, but the combo horizontal and vertical milling machine has traditionally been more successful. I have one, and it's a versatile arrangement.

It's worth more because of the natural patina.

We have something similar at the machine shop museum at Tuckahoe. It's made by Dalton.
