Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Kew Bridge Steam Museum - Woolf compound beam engine, near to Kew, Richmond Upon Thames, Great Britain.
This Woolf compound beam pumping engine was built in 1863 by Easton, amos & sons of London and supplied to Cliftonville Waterworks in Northampton. The clinders are 17.75" x 40.625" & 30.25" x 60.25". The flywheel is 18' diameter. The engine developed 50 indicated horsepower and drove three-throw pumps. It stopped in about 1943 and was finally removed in 1973. It was the first major engine to be re-erected at Kew and the late George Watkins was present at the inaugural steaming (and, purely by chance, so was I). |
