Findon (click on photograph to bring up bigger/better version).

A superb example of a single-throw flywheel and crank deep well pump. It's housed in a timber-framed pantiled shelter at Findon, West Sussex. The delivery pipe is missing, but note the unusual counterweight on the lever arm. Photo supplied by Paul Snelling - thanks, Paul. Markings: "Hayward Tyler & Co., Engineers, London" on the cast iron frame. Manufacturer: Hayward Tyler of London.
