It was nice to see the photos of the Fowler roller "Britannia". This is the first time that I have seen this particular engine since the mid 1970's.

It's my understanding that she has recently been purchased by Jim Wilkinson - I think she has was at Dingles for a while beforehand.

Yes, Dingles last roller owned by them up to last December. Stood at Dingles premises at Stoke & then at Lifton since the early 80s.We are honoured to be this engines second owners.

When did you last visit Dingles then? Very surprised you had not seen it since 1970s. As stated above it was there for many years - until Jim bought it. This was in 2007.....
