EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Fowell & Co. of St. Ives' General Purpose Engine No. 93, affectionately known as "The Abbot." Built in 1904, this engine is a stunning example of engineering from the early 20th century. With a single cylinder and nominal horsepower (NHP) of 7, it was not the most powerful engine of its time but certainly one of the most intriguing. The Abbot, registered under the number CE 7894, is a testament to the craftsmanship and innovation of Fowell & Co. Its cylinders, though simple in design, were capable of generating significant power for various applications. The engine's age is evident in its weathered exterior, yet it maintains an undeniable charm that draws the eye. The photograph captures The Abbot in its prime during the 1970s, a time when these historic engines were still in use but beginning to be replaced by more modern machinery. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of these engineering marvels. Fowell & Co. of St. Ives was a renowned manufacturer of stationary engines, producing a wide range of engines for various purposes. The Abbot, with its rich history and unique character, is a testament to the company's legacy and the enduring allure of these mechanical wonders.
