              1880: Originally installed and housed in a cellar, it pumped water for household and garden needs from a deep well at Taplow Lodge on the Cliveden Estate, Buckinghamshire. Discovered by the National Trust in 1991, it was restored by local enthusiasts and began to run again in 1995 and until 2004, it is believed that the engine was run only once a year.
