Neil,
Can't remember which one of those, but at least one type, was made by Trewhella Brothers and known as a Monkey winch.....they still produce them today. They were the equivalent in role, of the Tirfor used by the Army today. When I used to test winches for the army, one came in for test, it would have been considered obsolete at the time, but I thought it was better to use than a Tirfor.
