Its the anniversary of James Watt's death today, so here's a photo of his Handsworth home on the centenary of his death in 1919.
I've also come across this 1886 tile painting by John Eyre of Watt and Matthew Boulton in a workshop. I think perhaps the tile painting is of the interior of Heathfield Hall, maybe Watt's workshop which has since been installed in the Science Museum in London. I presume the seated man is a young Boulton. Viv.
