I've just come across these two photographs that I took at the Gee Cross Fete at Hyde, Cheshire in June 1995.
It's a 1921 Burrell Showman's Road Locomotive, engine number 3886 and named 'Lord Lascelles'. Chas Burrell and Sons of Thetford, Norfolk started making traction engines in 1856 and continued to make them until 1929. The company became part of the Agricultural and General Engineers combine in 1919 which was wound up in 1932.
