Apologies for poor photographs.
I had to take a chisel to get it open and judging by the dirt, I think it has not been opened for a good few decades
There is a winder which when turned, moves a cog along the bar which opens the Window.
Rather complex for what it does but another example of Victorian jollies it seems.
I am thinking there should be a pully cable perhaps?
Wants to start using it as have discovered when opened, it lets a rather nice breeze through the house.
Going to keep it as I like it but wouldn't mind cleaning it up etc but need to know what I am missing as having to get a chair to climb up and spend 5 minutes turning the winder is not the most convenient
Any ideas?
Thanks.
