the threshing box is a Nalder & Nalder box which were built for Brown & May to be sold as a set with a brown & may portable but at some stage the workers left Nalder & Nalder due to some sort of dispute and went to work for brown & may direct.
the ex Lackham portable and the Nalder & Nalder threshing box are now part of the newly formed Brown & may trust and both will be re built so they can both be operated and hope fully rallied together.
joe powell's portable is awaiting to have the boiler repaired but is waiting in line as there is another Brown & May in front of it at the moment which needs a lot more work.
hope this has helped answer your questions
regards sam
