Benches on Hallam New Road
Looking at the frame in front of these benches this was some sort of commemorative event now defaced.

Boughton Pumping Station
This is the smaller 'standby station' that had a Hathorn, Davey horizontal tandem compound 'differential' pump and an inverted vertical triple expansion pump. Beyond can be glimpsed the huge pumping station that housed a pair of triple expansion engines with horizontal high pressure cylinders and inverted vertical intermediate and low pressure cylinders. These were built by Ashton, Frost of Blackburn and scrapped in the 1970s.

Boughton Pumping Station
This was the "back-up" plant and comprised a Hathorn, Davey tandem compound "differential" engine, an inverted vertical triple expansion pumping engine and boilers. This is on the operational site and can no longer be approached.

Boughton Pumping Station
This is part of the facade of the main engine house that held a pair of Ashton, Frost triple expansion engines with both horizontal (HP) and inverted vertical cylinders (IP and LP). These were scrapped in the 1970s. The green beam is (I think) part of the support structure for the well pump bell-crank assembly.
A modern fence prevents a view from further away and without a fish-eye this was the best I could do.
