About this deal

Recovery vehicles: Talks about some trailers but some really good stuff on the 20 and 30 ton Pioneers - including the painful process of separating the trailer from the tractor.. There is also some stuff on the 40 ton trailers towed by Diamond Ts if you are into that sort of thing. Historic England. "Aqueduct, formerly carrying Grand Western Canal over driveway to Nynehead Court (1307612)". National Heritage List for England . Retrieved 6 December 2007. For local government purposes, since 1 April 2023, the village comes under the unitary authority of Somerset Council. Prior to this, it was part of the non-metropolitan district of Somerset West and Taunton (formed on 1 April 2019) and, before this, the district of Taunton Deane (established under the Local Government Act 1972). From 1894-1974, for local government purposes, Nynehead was part of Wellington Rural District. [8] After 30 odd years though the ever growing threat of the rail became real and as soon as 1869 they had become commercially unsuccessful, purely due to the decline in use of the canals. We are always adding new titles to our shop, and we are always happy to hear from you if you have any queries or comments.

This is a new company, not involved with tyres, certainly not racing tyres, but still part of what was Firestone, now owned by Bridgestone.Cross the large field in the direction shown on the fingerpost; we were walking through wheat here but a clear and pleasing path had been left through the crop for walkers. Ahead a stone bridge spanning the River Tone comes into view and you may hear trains in the distance as they travel between London and the West Country.

This ambitious solution to the height differences that canals faced relied on the simple balance principle and they worked a treat. The idea had actually been proposed before (way before) in 1777 by no other than Erasmus Darwin in his Commonplace Book. He eloquently described a device including balanced water-filled caissons that could be used to raise boats from one level to another. Bingo!

Hi Chris, bought the book from Nynehead books Sunday, arrived this morning Wed. Well researched and very informative with a good supply of pictures and maps. Archive footage is the speciality of Roundoak programmes made by Nynehead’s Robin Pearson. Old Pond has been able to offer the popular Bedford DVD for a number of years. The other titles are new to Old Pond distribution. It is also part of the Taunton Deane county constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It elects one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election.

At the end of the bridge go through a metal gate, swiftly followed by a wooden kissing gate, on which a yellow arrow points the way, bearing right on the public footpath across the field. Follow this, but first glance left at the avenue of young trees, planted in 2011 to mark the line of the original avenue along which the old carriageway passed. Follow the footpath across the field heading for a point between two pylons. This line passes beneath the wires and reaches a metal gate. Go through, crossing a small bridge and entering under trees. Nynehead is a village and civil parish in Somerset, England, situated on the River Tone, 7 miles (11km) south-west of Taunton and 1.5 miles (2km) north-west of Wellington. The village has a population of 415. [1] History [ edit ]Somewhere in that company, the old Logo was found, that used to be on the Brentford building. Unfortunately, it had deteriorated quite a bit, but it now is restored and is due to get a place of honour again. Now there are a lot of stories about the Brentford building, but unfortunately not much proof. We recently took delivery of three of the Scammell training films from the IWM. The quality of them is top hole. Mine came on Saturday and I looked at all the pictures which took an hour or so, and realy enjoyed seeing and in some cases remembering. Cross the aqueduct and follow the footpath as it drops downhill. At the bottom of the slope go left to find a notice board, situated beside historic remnants of the canal’s lower pond and lifts, which explains the engineering in fascinating detail.
