Default A &P Compound cylinder

Long shot but I am looking for a compound cylinder for a 8t Aveling roller or information that may help in locating one.
Thanks
Stu

Slide Valve Or piston Valve era? There are a lot of different variations.

I thought I would find one first and worry about whether it's the correct one later, but I appreciate the observation.

As I can't seem to work out how to edit my last post I will add the missing bit. It's a piston valve compound.
