As Paul said Chris. Came to an agreement after Mr Gravett the Curator made enquiries about acquiring it. I eventually agreed it would be better situated there with eventual occasional exhibiting around the Country. I was down there briefly Sunday, as not too good. Went down there today to sort some bits out and regular assistance for the Charity and got collared for pics with the Mower by the Centre's owner  possibly for a story in 'Local Rags'. Good thing is I came back with a little project to add to the list .

Edit - I remember the Anchor Butter Mower Ad and Chris G showed it to me today......not sure if he wants me to get it running!

Its a beast that Anchor Mower. I was tempted then thought why do I need that! Its better in a place like this on show. Shame the fuel tank is missing. The engine is toast but sure Harry sold it along with a spare which he had found
