Default Re: Daily Mail today, is this Britains oldest working oven?

It will almost certainly have had new burners. Burners for natural gas normally need a secondary flame directed at the base of the main flame to prevent the main flame from lifting off the nozzle. I still have the conversion instructions that were left by the previous owners of our house (but not the appliances!), and they all involved fitting new burners.
