Ray Freeman in Australia has managed to find a Welsh Corbett Williams. He wants to know of any other owners to contact & if any paperwork is available. His engine is No 1558 & he would like to find out when it was made. TIA
Dave and all, An off-group mail reminded me to look up that SEM article. It's in issue 275, January 1997. Corbett Williams were based in Rhuddlan, near Rhyl. Like many of the smaller firms in the business, most of their engine production seems to have gone abroad.
It's not absolutely clear, but it looks like engine production was from 1908ish to 1922/23.
Contact me if you need any further info. I've got a few photos.
