The Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway had its works at Horwich, near Manchester and they used a fleet of narrow gauge locos like 'Wren' on their internal rail system. They went outside the works for this one - it was built by Beyer Peacock, also in Manchester. It features a circular firebox more like a steam boat's arangement. Compare it with 'Pet' from the LNWR in the same museum.
