The roof over the pumps was added in about 1935-1938.

This "modern" car appears to be attracting some attention. Identify anyone ?

I have just learnt that there is still a pair of Gantry pumps working in Wainfleet, Lincs. https://maps.app.goo.gl/JnQ6qwuKCAXvHPbJA and these in Little Downham Cambs https://maps.app.goo.gl/TMcgsPyDuKdSADmr8
