I am a keen collector of brass maker's plates from " Mill " Steam engines.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries several Accrington engineering firms built steam engines of this type. Two spring to mind:

C. WHITTAKER & Co--Made Brick Manufacturing Plant, and small to medium sized steam engines.

LANG BRIDGE & Co--Machinery for the Cotton Mills and Steam Engines.

I would be interested inhearing from anyone who has brass makers plates from these Accrington Engineering Companys, as well as old brochures, letterheads, and historic photographs of mill engines.
