Lowland works, Mirfield. Ashworth & Parker inverted vertical compound condensing engine driving an alternator. Installed 1954 to replace a Musgrave uniflow that had broken. Ran until 1989 but probably scrapped since. I have no external shot to hand and doubt I ever took one. Perhaps somebody could oblige if the works is still there.
