This wheel, originally designed to use at Snaefell and taken to Cornwall and last seen in bits (see previous post) in 2005. Known now as the Lady Evelyn and previously known as the Gawns wheel, this has been restored by the Laxey and Lonan Heritage Trust. Members of Bagillt Heritage Society went to Laxey to see the wheel on 28th July 2012 and were given a warm welcome, see the attached photographs.
