The three-legged object is a representation of the 3 cylinder radial engine that was patented by Peter Brotherhood and later adapted to power the Whitehead "automobile" torpedo.
"The stone at the centre of this plinth is a schematic representation of a three cylinder engine patented in 1872 by Mr Peter Brotherhood, founder of the company that now bears his name and which has been a world leader in engineering since 1867. "From 1907 to 1994 the stone carving was above the main entrance of the company’s former headquarters in Lincoln Road Peterborough — less than two miles away. It was brought to this site when the company moved to this new building in October 1994." |
