Not something I can help with except to suggest you sign up to Ravelry and join the UK Spinners group there.  Put up the same query perhaps with more photos from different angles and showing the flyer and bobbin clearly.
There's experts with experience of lots of wheels who'll help.
Also check out this website  http://ukspinningwheels.info/  it should help.

As Dogwalker says :)

Where in the world are you?  It's a fairly rustic style of carving, so a very small wheelmakers, I'd say.  Quite likely local, is why I ask where you are.
