For those interested this is well worth a visit, admission is free and the engine is just incredible to watch.

Its not Brook or Bridge its Leawood , the engine was built in 1849 byGraham and Co Milton Iron Works , Elsecar , and there is a beam engine on that site too , both engines can be found on web sites , and don't forget there is a twin beam engine at Middleton Top ,
