Hello
ODK History Lovers
In general research, I discovered a British reel lawnmower that was advertised here
in 1948 and 1949. The Clifton was a 22" reel/roller mower imported here from about 1948.
Little is known about them ...
I have made inquiries to the great
Old Lawnmower Club, but with no success so far ...
The machine, at
22-inch cut, was no residential or domestic lawnmower. It had a high
specification, and was a true
dual drive machine. It was powered by a
J.A.P. 4-stroke engine. A typical ad is shown below:-
