Interestingly the Eagle has WW1 'Subsidy' pattern recovery hooks on it. Ive not dated it 100% but it was built sometime between 1907 and 1912, so it would 'fit' as being Great war era.

The hooks on the chassis



Same type on a FWD, Ive seen the same ones on other Great War lorries, Dennis, Thornycroft etc
