Henry Beare and Sons.

Henry Beare and Sons were manufactures of agricultural equipment.
We will be making tractors with working machinery attached.

1878 Devon County Show. Among our local manufacturers, very few throw more enthusiasm into their work than does the head of the firm of Henry Beare and Sons, of Newton Abbot, and any production of theirs is sure to deserve attention both for its ingenuity and the good workmanship put into the implement. The Eclipse haymaker is a machine that Messrs. Beare have been gradually improving, and its simplicity, light draught, and freedom from clogging, makes it a valuable addition to the great amount harvesting machinery now offered to the public. At the same stand there are a large number of implements of use in all branches of agriculture.[8]



This session is suitable for ages 6+ and must be accompanied by an adult. The session will be at Newton Abbot Museum. The session runs from 9.30 to 12.00.

Tickets are £7.50 per Child.(Non-refundable) Check-in at the door. Lego workshop will be upstairs in the Museum.
