| 8 forum posts | Can anyone provide information on Morewood Model Engineers Ltd. I have a very nice professionally manufactured copper boiler for a 5in gauge Boxhill made by them with the test certificate dated 24 October 1984. The boiler was tested hydraulically to a pressure 200lbs/psi. As to quality, it could have been made by a watchmaker - it's a work of art in it's own right. I have no information on Morewood other than the test certificate which was printed by a commercial printer. With thanks, John Harris

| 465 forum posts 4 photos | Your boiler certiicate was issued 3 years prior to them being taken over. Stuart / Cheddar were involved. Morewood , as far as I rember was the surname of the proprietor . Andy Meakin at Stuarts more be able to help Jerry at Clevedon steam worked for Cheddar so he may be worth contacting Bill |
