Was the winch off PS Amos, or am I confusing it with a different stand?

Well Done John Walker. It was the eye catcher for the Dolphin Barge Museum Stand in the main Exhibition hall at The Kent County Show.
Over to you yet again. Hopefully we will gradually attract more guessers as time goes by.

No ..
Further clue.  The Winch was the centre piece showcasing Dolphin Barge Museum at an event.
You need to find where it was.

Time for a clue. The winch was not at its own home. Carpet may help .

Try Headcorn Airport Museum - seems the only place NOT tried ?

P. A.S. (dockyard) - Port Axillary Ship or Service ?




Port Auxiliary Service. Changed to Royal Maritime Auxiliary mid 70s. Privatised in 96 and currently run by Serco in the remaining Dockyards/Naval Bases.

It looks similar to the winches you see on the front of some tugs.

The Dockyard Museum, Chatham?  Looks like it could come from one of the PAS (dockyard) craft.
