Warming up the boiler, chimney and the engines is critical if we are to have good performance. By the afternoon we should have some of the smaller engines in operation and may even turn over the mighty Hathorn Davey in preparation for Sunday. This will be the third running in public following an extensive restoration program. This has been made possible by many 1000’s of volunteer hours and over £100,000 funding from local donations, Heritage Lottery Fund and Historic England.

Our on-site coffee shop will be open all day and craft beer and wood fired pizza will be available from 12.00 till late in the Engineers House.
