Cotswold Heritage

Originally branded as the Reeves Heritage Collection and supplied to the famous AJ Reeves model engineering supplies company, Cotswold Heritage subsequently developed in its own right as a UK manufacturer of small stationary steam engines.
The Cotswold Heritage range initially consisted of 4 factory finished models varying from a simple mill engine; Perseus, to an A-framed beam engine; Vulcan, as shown by their 1998 promotional literature. Their 3rd Edition catalogue now shows the range to have developed further offering not just finished steam models, but machined kits, steam boilers and steam plants.
A further enhancement to the range was launched in November 2002 with the introduction of the Stothert and Pitt Beam engine kit for the model engineer to machine. Cotswold Heritage have commissioned the authority on historical stationary engines, Anthony Mount to research their model engineering kits and write construction articles for model engineering magazines. The Stothert and Pitt articles appearing in 'Engineering in Miniature' from November 2002 - July 2003 and subsequent articles in the Model Engineer magazine.
In 2007, a Cotswold Heritage 'Electrical Generation' plant features in the BBC Children's TV program, 'The Magic of Making' - showing young people how electrical power may be generated from steam.
