Thurston Smith made the models , he worked at the Brickworks and had a workshop in the pen behind his house , did all the parts himself including the castings , I'm thinking one of the models is a "beam engine" typical of the power units used to drive the loooms in local mills . Think the last one he made was copied from the Cotton Mill on Bridge st. in Church ,
