MARKFIELD BEAM ENGINE AND MUSEUM

The principal activity of the Markfield Beam Engine and Museum is the conservation and operation of the Victorian Beam Pumping Engine as part of an heritage site and educational resource in the London Borough of Haringey. It is located in what was the old Tottenham sewage works, within what is now Markfield Park, and adjacent to the River Lea.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
