LETTER: Where is it now?

Until May 1964 there used to be a very old Fire Engine (Horse Drawn?) in a shed alongside the road just on the Newhaven Town Station side of the river bridge.

It is known that It carried a makers plate which read ‘Shand & Mason Blackfriars Road. London’, the word ‘Newhaven’ was painted on both sides of the box and that the words ‘Number 3 London Brighton & South Coast Railway’ was painted on the rear of the box.

I have been trying to trace its present whereabouts (if it still exists) but so far without success.
