Anson Museum - Robey compressor engine

Image: © Chris Allen Taken: 13 Aug 2006

A possibly unique example of this design of Robey horizontal single cylinder steam engine with a tail rod compressor. Note the patch repair to the crank cover. This is the 'gate guardian', with access road on the left and when last seen (2023) could use a bit of a tidy up. This is quite a wooded area.
