Vintage 1920s antique Cast Iron stove National Radiator Co Ideal Domestic No 0

Stunning Vintage antique Cast Iron Burner\boiler or maybe a garden decorative garden piec, chimenea. This is an Ideal Domestic No0 from the National Radiator Company in Hull.

1920's'Ideal Standard' cast iron boiler that's perfect for heating a traditional garage or workshop. Once common in pre-WW2 homes, they've now become quite rare. It makes a great heater using coal or logs, with or without being plumbed into a water tank to generate a hot water supply. Flat top is designed for boiling the kettle for a cup of tea. Already lasted one hundred years and will hopefully be used to last another.

It comes complete with part of the original flue, the grate, the ash collector(in need of repair), the original tools. It comes apart for and most of the pieces are not too heavy, the main boiler bit is extremely heavy and could do. With two people to lift it. It will need recommissioning with new stove rope etc if it is to be used again. There is a crack to the front part of the top plate that has been repaired from underneath.

I found a bit of history on the stove here. A Stove Less Ordinary: A Life in Stoves (stovehistory. The coal boiler for hot water in the home (1900s.
