'Iron Duke': Bradford-on-Avon

From Graces Guide
Revision as of 17:57, 13 March 2017 by JohnD (talk | contribs)

In 1969/70 this historic rubber calendering machine, built c.1848, was removed for possible preservation from the rubber works in Bradford-on-Avon (originally S. Moulton and Co, then George Spencer, Moulton and Co, and finally the Avon Rubber Co). Its components remained in storage in Bristol until recently, when funds were raised to restore it and put it on public display. This was completed in November 2016, and the machine can now be seen on the site of the former Kingston Mill in Bradford-on-Avon.
