Jessop & Appleby Engine at Forncett Industrial Steam Museum

Built by Jessop & Appleby in 1897, this lovely engine is particularly significant, as it started off the collection at Forncett St Mary.
It spent its working life pumping vinegar at the Cross & Blackwell and Sarsons factories and once ran for 25 years continuously. It can be seen running on Steam Days, which take place on the first Sunday of each month from May to November. The museum is well worth a visit as a family day out with a difference.
