Photograph Notes: This is the classic Belliss & Morcom of Birmingham inverted vertical compound enclosed V-type engine. Thousands of these were built and were still quite a common sight in the 1970s and 1980s. They are now much less common and it is nice to see this later type of steam engine on display. This particular one is one of a pair built for St Andrew's Hospital Thorpe Next Norwich in 1931. The cylinders are 10" & 14.5" x 6" and it was good for 95 BHP at 600 rpm. The engines were removed in 1974 and its twin is displayed at Bressingham - TM0880 : Belliss Morcom & Maudslay�s Ltd Vertical Steam DC Generator
