A rare Stuart Turner No.5, a design produced by the company between 1906 and 1925. Evolved from the No.1, it shares the same 2 x 2 bore and stroke but features a double standard design to support the crosshead.

The engine runs well on air at 20psi, with some wear evident in the big end - not entirely unexpected given its age.

Listed in the Stuart Turner catalogue of the time priced at £7 10s. 0d. ready to run.
