Probing the roots of Britain's rich industrial heritage, Fred Dibnah digs deep into the archives to present this highly-informative series. Beginning with a look at the early use of wind and water power, Fred traces the development of the steam engine and visits a man who has built a windmill in his own back garden. He then sets off in search of early beam engines that are still functioning today.
