It's a marking gauge,used to scribe lines in a wood surface parallel to the edge for marking tenons and mortises for cutting or for other purposes.
As your device has two marking pins,it is likely a mortise gauge.

It is a mortise gauge. Made in Sheffield, England, but available from Lee Valley tools all over Canada.

Isn't there anyone going to have a guess? Here's another helpful photo.



The object is small and serves households in England.

The lighting suggests this image was taken outside. Is it part of a public drainage system ?
