Stretham Old Engine sign on exterior of pumping station building.


Stretham Old Engine, this disused land drainage pumping station is scheduled as an Ancient Monument. Originally installed in 1831, it was restored by the Stretham Engine Trust. It contains a steam powered double-acting rotative beam engine, and is the last surviving complete example of its kind in the Fens.
