It's being driven by the belt and it's in the boiler house at Bancroft.

It's the belt drive that operated the scrapers on the economiser tubes in the boiler house. It was an automatically reversing system and was fascinating to watch....
Now we need another object. Anyone up for it?

Too easy wasn't it! Yes, but to be more specific, it's the turret clock Johnny Pickles made for the Catholic church in Barlick.....
We need another object now....

You're right about the quick thread Kev but it's not a lid, in fact quite the reverse.....
