Now the London Metropolitan University. In 1993 it had a pair of Lancashire boilers, a W H Allen steam engine and this pair of Weir single cylinder non-rotative steam boiler feed pumps. They usually came in pairs to provide redundancy. In the background are more modern, duplicated electric feed pumps.
