I collected bits for a garden gate Norton for many years, however I couldn't find a frame which had not been broken and repaired.  The garden gate Manx looks really great, however they are usually heavy and poor handling.  The featherbed long stroker was far superior. Francis Beart had some success with the garden gate manx in it's era.  As an historic conversation piece, one would look great in the lounge room.
