A Tullos threshing machine owned by farmer Jesse Watson, of Littleport, Cambridgeshire up for auction after his death. Watson purchased the machine in 1946 and transported it down from Aberdeen to the Fens by rail. A technological marvel in its time, it took three men to operate it but did the job of six - mechanically separating grain from chaff, husks, and straw without complaint. The process fed cut crops into the machine, where rotating drums loosened the grain, sieved it, winnowed away debris, and delivered it ready for milling. Its tenure however, was short lived. Lacking self-propulsion it needed to towed into the field by tractor or horse. Within ten years it was displaced by the combine harvester who could undertake all those task via an internal combustion engine and one man.

Prospective buyers inspect a Fordson Major at Hilgay Collective Farm sale in Norfolk,UK. The Fordson was the worlds first mass produced tractor with this model made in Dagenham between 1951 & 1960 under licence from Henry Ford in the USA. Despite only pulling 54hp compared to the 530hp of its modern counterparts the vehicle was very popular with independent farmers due its reliability and the local availability of spare parts.
