Large circular drum on end, about 2m in diameter, supported on 4 feet. This casing has moulded tracery of interlocking circles and half circles on each side. Large paired wheels inside with protruding axle, rest of machinery has disappeared. (Ref: W. Branch Johnson Industrial Archaeology of Hertfordshire, 1970.) Thanks to Bob Taylor for the photos and a closer estimate of the size of the drum as approximately 1.6m in diameter, and standing 1.7m high on 4 claw feet.
