Old steam engine

Came across this at a cafe above Somerset West on our way to Fish Hoek. It is a stationary steam engine made in Lincoln in 1916. It was pulled by oxen or horses then used for cutting logs, pumping water, threshing etc. It used to have flywheel and gears etc attached. It was last used in 1975; a useful and long life.
