Brindley Bank Pumping Station

Image: © Chris Allen Taken: 23 Jun 2007

South Staffs Water Works Co station of 1905 with a 105' long steam pumping engine inside. Was the Company museum but is sadly deteriorating. Recently listed II* and plans to sell the site for housing have fallen through for the time being. This was taken on the occasion of a visit by the International Stationary Steam Engine Society and the only place for many to park was in picture.
