Default Unknown partial trailer chassis

I was sent these photos of an unknown and possibly military chasis.

The tyres look to be CND waritme pattern. To me it looks like the front portion of one the 4 wheel trailers.

Any suggestions would be great.

Agree with Maurice. Bofors front axle/drawbar. Check with Mike Calnan at the S&P museum. Seems to me either he or some associates of his were looking for that exact piece.

The correct answer took 48 minutes to arrive from Holland. Come on boys! That's nearly an hour! Isn't the internet faster than that?

BTW, good ID. I'd have said misc homemade trailer. Nothing to see. Move along.
