DocBlake Posted July 22, 2015 Share #1 Posted July 22, 2015 Has anyone seen plans or decent photos or drawings of a ship's stove prior to the introduction of the Brodie stove in 1781? I'd like to add it to my plank-on-frame Armed Virginia Sloop of 1768. No Brodie stoves in 1768! Any help appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windships Posted July 1, 2018 Share #4 Posted July 1, 2018 Maybe too late for a useful reply, but get this report online. Excellent drawings of a stove recovered from this wreck site. https://files.nc.gov/dncr-arch/PDF/Rose-Hill-Report.pdf and the image below from a different wreck. I will probably reference this work in my book about the origin of the vessel Chaleur (1763-1768).

Mark P Posted July 2, 2018 Share #5 Posted July 2, 2018 Morning Dave; In the AOTS series, the book on 'Blandford', a 20 gun ship from 1720, has some excellent details of her fire-hearth. All the best, Mark P mtaylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
