Claymills Victorian Pumping Station

Probably Britain´s most complete Victorian steam pumping station. Two pumping beam engines, two Lancashire boilers and twenty other steam engines are now fully operational. The Victorian workshop has lathes, shapers, slotters and wibblers, all working away powered by the fine Vernon & Guest vertical steam engine. A Crompton electrical generator of 1889 was installed at Claymills in 1900 to work the, then new fangled, electric lighting and it still works. Children can start a small steam engine, follow the Rat Trail and rides behind a model traction engine are also sometimes offered. Refreshments are available and you can browse in our second hand bookshop. See www.claymills.org.uk for steaming details
