Gents,
Looks like SWMBO and I will be taking to the water later this year. Don't know where yet, but I can remember some time back so talk of a beam pumping station on a canal that is open to the public to see. Can anyone remind me please? I'd hate to miss it if I could steer the hoilday near by!
Cheers
Andy G

Sounds like Crofton on the Kennet and Avon. 1785 Boulton and Watt IIRC

Hi Andy, Don't forget that UK.REC.WATERWAYS is a good place to ask for advice on canal holidays!
I also think there is a sewerage pumping beam engine or two up the river Lee a bit south of Tottenham.
Hi Andy, Crofton is probably what you are looking for. Here is their website;
