    Geoff you have come to the right place as the VHGMC hold the factory records and I am custodian of them.
    933318 was despatched on 21-8-59, dealer was Weeks, and machine was delivered on 11-9-59 to D W Crampton, Cavershaw House, London Road, Ditton, Kent.
    If you need any help with the machine please let me know your e mail address via personal message on this website. I have owners manuals which include parts lists.
    The original engineering drawings are held at Museum of English Rural Life (MERL) in Reading.

    Charlie thank you for your prompt reply with the details.
    Ditton has been considerably developed in the last 60 years and there appears to be no record of Cavershaw House now.
    The Monro is in need of considerable refurbishment and I currently do not have the facilities or opportunity to carry them out. Would ebay be the best way of finding somebody who would enjoy the restoration?

    Geoff, yes e bay is probably the best option as there will be a wide audience. Current lockdown rules may be a problem regards collection though.
