Pumping Engine

Horse Jingle

A horse and jingle (a loosely sprung, two-wheeled, roofed carriage, usually used as a hackney coach), pictured in a 12-foot pumping engine cylinder in Hayle. This was a pumping engine cylinder for the Cruquius steam pumping station in Holland, which drained the Harlem Mere in the mid-19th century. The pumping engine was still on site in Holland at the Museum de Cruquius as of 1995. The cylinder pictured here was miscast.
