1922. Reg No: BW 6030. Susie. General Purpose Engine. No 3919. Built 1922.
This engine was new to F. Nixey and Sons who were farmers in Cuxham. It was then acquired by Bob Castle a timber contractor. This engine spent its working life in Berkshire and the South Cotswolds.
She was next bought by Peter Young of Cirencester in the early fifties and he kept her until 1979 when he sold her to Dave Plant, also in the Cirencester area. Dave Plant did a lot of work on the engine, but sold her in a dismantled condition to David and Judith Walker. They finished the work and rallied the engine for several years, bringing her to Cornwall from Shropshire.
The engine was then purchased by their daughter and son-in law, Nickey and Charlie Daniel of Bodmin in June 1997.
