Hinges have been changed but I don't think this was recently done, going by the screws (tarnish inside the slot) I suspect this was done at the same time as the strapping was added, maybe in the Victorian period. There are signs of cloth attached to pins/tacks inside so it might have had cloth on the inside originally. No lock to help identify age.
