Creda Autoclean
Now for a bit of British domestic appliance history.
I believe this is the ONLY UK manufactured cooker ever to have a self cleaning oven, not the type with self clean liners but one where the oven heats to high temperature to burn off the dirt.
Mid to late 1960s

Al, I need to drop you a message about an old cooker in my Grandparent's annex, if your interested. It's been there for a while and its state of functioning is unkown, its been there ages.

Thank you for posting this. I am not overly familiar with machines of this era but I will keep a very close eye on this one as it is close to where I now live and I drive past there every Friday on my weekly commute to and from London
Please do send details of the cooker and I will gladly confirm if it is of interest.
Thanks

Green Kitchen
Looks well kept. This is coming towards the end of the days when kitchens would be constructed of all wood, soon all fittings and drawers would be plastic

Belling Classic 80 Extra
Well once again it happens, you don't see any for years and then two crop up almost at the same time. This is the same unit as the NIB one just sold last week although this one, very clearly, is not NIB

There was another one of these a couple of weeks ago (see reply #30) - this one might be a bit older - mid to late 1960s. Also definitely not NIB

Thankfully I think I got the better of the two! It's settling in nicely after 42 years in hibernation and made its first cake yesterday.

So what was it? Victoria Sandwich? Fatless Sponge? Fruit Cake? Madeira?
Where are the pictures? Or have you scoffed the lot already LOLOLOL
Glad its working out for you, I will admit I was a bit tempted to go for it myself (it would have been exactly the right timeframe for when my house was built) but as you said you were keen I decided to let common sense win and let you go for it instead. It was a great price you got it for, and very well worth it I think

It was Marmalade Gingerbread from the Belling recipe book, just scoffing a piece as I write
. Didn't think to take any pics of the product but here's a few of the cooker. It's a shame that I couldn't leave the labels on, but I have left the chalk mark under the hob from the inspection team.
Thanks for holding off on this one, I'm so glad that I've got it, and it's gone to a good home.

Thanks for posting the great pictures, seems to me you will be needing to change those 1980s cabinets for something more in keeping both with the cooker and the other bits and pieces we can see there LOLOLOL
Marmalade Gingerbread sounds interesting - I was just saying to Mike last weekend that I have not made ginger bread for YEARS - just whilst we were eating some McVities ginger cake. Maybe you could post the recipe when you have a moment.

And now for something a little older
English Electric - mid-late 1950s and absolutely typical for its time

Belling Classic 90
This is the updated version of the Belling shown above and indeed I think this is the model that Ian had before installing the new one. This is NOT his though. It looks in remarkably good condition
