The latch on the way out the side door of the church. I can’t imagine this is a anywhere near as old as the church. For the obvious reason, you can still get all sorts of new-made ancient-looking hardware here. But it’s identical to the one on the front door (which isn’t used every day), so I imagine it’s pretty old.
I get a kick out of the very old things still in daily use here.

Hey; *I’m* old and still in use everyday. Maybe not very *useful* but in use at least.

Behind a paywall, Can’t Hark, but I get the gist of it from the title.
Yup. I’ve always been more than glad to give my opinion and/or advice for ANY situation or item.
