This now disbanded private collection was owned by the late John Huish. In pride of place in the photograph is a Tangyes of Birmingham inverted vertical single cylinder engine. The light green three cylinder drum-shaped machine is a Peter Brotherhood radial engine. Also nearby are a pair of horizontal single cylinder twin flywheel machines that would have been for gasworks use and highly likely to have been by Bryan Donkin of Chesterfield.
