Re: Paradise Works

I started to write a post last week but Retlaw beat me to it. Just found this
Its Lang Bridge's Old Paradise Work's, the buildings facing the camera(?)
are (were) Barns furniture shop. If anyone is interested in 1903 Lang's
supplied a double diagonal steam engine, probably with a printing machine,
to Bollington Print Work's, near Macclesfield, this engine has now been restored
and can be seen running under steam at the Northern Mill Engines Society's
Museum in Bolton. As far as I know this is the only exsisting machine built
in Paradise Works. Someone will surely prove me wrong. A company called
Polly Model Engineering Ltd. produce a set of castings to make a model of this
engine.
