An inverted vertical single cylinder 'bottle-frame' engine by Marshall Sons & Co Ltd of Gainsborough. A small slide valve engine with a cylinder 4.5" x 8". There was also a George Waller horizontal single cylinder engine on display. The museum at one time had a large winding engine in store but this has since been 'lost'.
