yep its a Hay Budden.
I suspect it may have been a farriers anvil originally but it looks like it may have been altered over the years. (but I could be wrong)
aside from that cut across the face it looks great! It is a lot cleaner than most Ive seen lately.
where did you dig this bad boy up?
are there any numbers stamped or cast into it? someone could probably look it up in the anvil book for you.
congrats on your find!

Many farriers will cut a groove across the face of the anvil so they can punch nail holes without dragging the shoe to the pritchel hole for each hole. I think it has been so modified. Damn nice farriers anvil though. You can tell it's a farrier's anvil by the shape of the horn... Bigger diameter at bottom and flat on top with a fairly steep taper to the horn... Supposed to make shaping of horseshoes easier... Depends on user.:playfull:
