Little implement wrenches like this show up all the time at antique stores, generally part of the tool kit supplied with agricultural equipment, in this case one of products that W. N. Nicholson and Sons of Newark-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire exported to Canada.
The company was formed in 1825, as a malleable iron and steel foundry and according to Grace's Guides, they were still in business to at least 1960. Over the years they manufactured agricultural machinery and food mills of various kinds, also boilers, steam engines and stationary gas engines.
