Although not quite in the first rank of engineers in the late Georgian and Victorian period, William Fawcett, from Liverpool, established an enterprise that outsold Birmingham’s Boulton and Watt in selected markets. As for a Nantwich connection, speaker Trevor Evan has uncovered an albeit rather tenuous link, with one of the town’s most famous residents. A story of steam, enterprise and bankruptcy.
