'Sutherland' steam fire engine, built by Messrs, Merryweather. It won first prize for large steam engines at the international competition at the Crystal Palace in 1863. Since its construction it has undergone a few alterations. The chief change has been the substitution of the present boiler for the original Field tube boiler. Some of the woodwork has also been renewed and the machine which was originally coloured green and red has been repainted.
