Duchy College in Stoke Climsland in Cornwall had a trailed roller made up of front rolls, Mr Wakeham might know who to contact.

What are approximate sizes Stuart?

Diameter for similar engines?

Width between inside edges of rear wheels? (so the width of the front ones can be estimated).

I know of a good many sets of front rolls, which I can visit to gauge suitability with a tape. I don't buy them as they are essentially unsaleable in normal circumstances.

I assume Mr Haxby in Lincolnshire converted it before Garth Holman bought it?

No, I’ve seen a photo of it in Cornwall on wheels before Ray Haxby bought it in 1978. Incidentally, commercially he owned a very late Marshall 8NHP compound TE, 87512(1934).
