Joella Orr, Director of the Denton Public Library. Mrs. Orr was great at finding where the money was (and a state grant), and she filled up the library a lot quicker than anyone expected. She was Emily Fowler's successor, and she was a member of an old Denton County family--the Allens. You can find an interview with her father that I conducted for the library in the library's collection.. Her interest in local history was sincere, and she started the oral history program at the Emily Fowler Library. She also got E. J. Headlee to donate his collection of his own publication--DENTON DOINGS--to the library. These are a gold mine of Denton social history. NOTE: NOT ALL MY THANK YOUS ARE BEING SAVED. I APPRECIATE ALL COMMENTS, AND I WANT TO THANK ALL OF YOU.
Fowler 10nhp Crane Engine No. 17106 was built in 1928 and spent most of its working life with Marstons Road Services in Liverpool hauling castings, dynamos and ship's gear around Great Britain. The engine gained the name 'Duke of York' in 1952 and was always known as 'the big engine' during its working life. The engine underwent major repairs in the mid 1990s and is seen here in the colliery yard at Beamish
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, Fowler CO railroad depot. Built in 1913 and closed in 1953. Currently used as a town hall.
Fowler's Modern English Usage is a splendid guide to the language. The paper and print of the first edition, published by Wordsworth, is rather poor. The second edition has been very lightly revised by Gowers and this Oxford publication is very pleasant to read. The third edition has been heavily revised by Burchfield and I do not recommend it.
I could make this one for real, but was playing around in stud.io and came up with this so thought I'd cross-pollinate with my Instagram series (where I'm rendering my existing castle 4x4s).

Hiked about a mile from our campsite to Lower Fowler Pond. Grabbed a canoe and started paddling out - had the entire place to ourselves all day.

Fowler T3, CYY 424, 1930, Owned by Richard Hazell. Exported to Jarva when new, exported back to Britain and used by the mechanical tar spraying and grouting company. Used until 1966. In its original working condition.
At the SM32 gathering at EBT I spotted this John Shawe converted Fowler on the big loop. This loco started life as a Roundhouse 0-6-2 Fowler, an outside frame loco. It was converted to a coal-fired boiler by John Shawe. If the plate on the cab is accurate, this was done circa 1998.
I can't tell from my photos if this was setup for 32mm or 45mm running at the time I saw it, but being outside frame it could have easily been either. I do note the water lines from the tender and the top of a banjo fitting inside the frame indicating an axle pump. It also appears to have RC linkage for the throttle in the cab; unknown if the reverser is manual or radio.
I also don't know what was going on with that rear axle on the tender. It doesn't look like it is derailed but the sideframe sure doesn't seem happy with that axle.

Fowlers S577KJF, a 1999 Volvo B10M Plaxton Excalibur, was seen inside the Fowlers depot, out of service. New to Fowlers of Holbeach Drove, it spent most of its life after Fowlers with Dudleys Coaches. It has been sold back to Fowlers recently, meaning it "came home".
The Fowler's "Lion" Factory, with its distinctive parapet topped by a statue of a lion, was designed by architect Frank Counsell in federation style for D. & J. Fowler Ltd in 1906. The brickwork was built by W. Sander & Sons, while the lion statue took three months to be carved by a Melbourne stonemason, John Patrick Jackson. The building is noted for its high-quality brick detailing and the well-designed composition of the facade. The building was used for packaging Fowler's Lion brand of flour, and the (original and now restored) signage on the parapet still says 'Fowler's "Lion" Factory'. Fowler's wide range of Lion brand products, trademarked in 1886, were very popular.
The original symmetrical shape of the facade was destroyed in 1966, when the eastern wing was demolished for the widening of Morphett Street and the construction of two new bridges across North Terrace and the River Torrens.
After its use as a factory ceased, the building started being used as a performance space. It was known as the Living Arts Centre from about 1986 until 1992, during which time the building was renovated, converted and renamed to Lion Arts Centre.
