A Robey of Lincoln threshing machine awaits restoration in this extension to the Trust's premises. The Trust is devoted to all things Robey and has many steamy delights for followers of road and stationary steam. This is No. 3331 of c1880 and is the oldest known surviving Robey threshing machine. It has had new wheels but is awaiting a suitable woodworker to replace the top boards.
