    Hi David

    I presume it is a gas burner.

    Do any current gas containers fit it?

    Hi Trevor,

    Yes, it's gas but it doesn't take a cartridge - there's a standard hose inlet at the back. I just came across the photo when I was looking for something else and posted it. I've looked for the stove itself, just now, for another photo but I couldn't find it... :roll:

    I presume it was mainly intended for use in site huts and just connected to a large cylinder.
