This, like all of the following photos, does not have a
title. The function of this machine is not known. |
This appears to be a machine for taking power off a steam
engine. |

|
This is a lathe for turning mill rolls. Here a pair
of rolls are mounted to check for accuracy. A rolling mill would
need such a machine for truing up rolls after each working shift. |
This device (again backed by white sheets) is a massive
guillotine for cutting up blooms, bars and thick sheets, possibly
including armour plate. |

This is an enlargement from the first photo. In the
background the carter wears some sort of felt hat. In the
foreground the man in the top hat and frock coat would be one of the
bosses, possibly Thomas Perry Junior. The man in the bowler would
be a foreman, possibly the works foreman. |
Thanks to Noel Tittle for help with identifying and captioning the
photos.
