Steel outrigger with five stays and "Baker" gate.
Matt Wood made the outrigger.
Baker gate was an alternative to the usual fittings by Matt Wood. They were the first improvement over the brass type for fifty years. Quite expensive but lighter with neater catch. They were rendered obsolete by the present day nylon version. The pin incorporates a height adjustment.
