Astley Green Colliery Museum
Rusty Lancashire coal-fired steam boilers manufactured by John Hodgkinson Ltd of Salford, Lancashire.
The boilers lay waiting restoration at Astley Green Colliery Museum, Tyldesley, Manchester.
These boilers would have generated the steam needed to operate the steam engine which drove the pit head winding gear. Twin flu Lancashire boilers were also widely used in the cotton mills.
