Looks to be a Hayter Hawk. You can decode the year of manufacture from the Briggs and Stratton engine model and serial number. Looks to be very old. The front roller has been removed. Here is a couple pics that may be helpful to you I found.

I believe it is 12" wide cut. I guess you could cut between the corn rows. :biggrin:

i think the mate that said he had it his dad used it on church yards and round graves he had it in an out building and is very well used poss passed it usefulness but i will try just to make it start just as something to do

and yes ithink 12 inch cut

What an interesting looking mower. I'll have to follow this one to watch your restoration.
