Mill Meece Pumping Station, Victorian pumping station in Stafford, England.

The Mill Meece facility contains two horizontal tandem compound Corliss valve engines and three Lancashire boilers for water extraction operations.

Built under the Staffordshire Potteries Waterworks Act of 1912, the station began operations in 1915 and supplied water until December 1979.

The preserved station demonstrates the industrial engineering methods of the early 20th century through regular demonstrations of restored machinery.

The Mill Meece Pumping Station Preservation Trust organizes guided tours and educational visits throughout the year for groups and schools.

The station maintains its original steam engines in working condition, with both the Ashton Frost Engine and Hathorn Davey Engine still operating.
