The braided steel cable is terminated by a brass-colored ferrule, clearly engraved with “MIDLAND BANK,” “LONDON,” and “12-7 mm. dia.” (12.7 mm diameter). The cable itself appears intact, revealing a multi-strand construction with a reddish central core at its exposed end. These items, likely dating from the mid-to-late 20th century, suggest components for a security or industrial application.
