South Cerney 2016, Friday

[International Steam]

We had a few hours here in the afternoon on our way to stay in London before Weald of Kent.

The report is here:

I know at least two more engines turned up on Saturday, I have noted this, if there were others please let me know, similarly any errors.

is the unidentified portable a brown and may?
also what is the flat bit at the bottom of the inside rim of the flywheel?

The baby portable is indeed a Brown & May. I think the flat bit on the bottom of the flywheel is a balance weight. It is opposite the throw of the crank.

Thanks both of you for this. Have now noted this on the appropriate page. I note there are several 19th century examples listed in the TER.

I recorded the number from the rear of the cylinder block as 3679. This would put it between 1880 and 1890.

Definitely 1880 something, maybe 86 or 88. We had a good chat with Mrs Goddard about the engine. Lovely small portable engine and a complete contrast to the Marshall outside in terms of size. Not sure which one I'd rather have.

The B&M for me

Out of interest do you know which ones were listed but didn't show up?

PM if you would rather.
