Inside the firebox, which is on its side, a few crown stays waiting for nuts protrude through the crown sheet |
Outside, the curve of the plate above the firebox means that crown stays are of different lengths, and some enter the plate on a curve & at quite an angle. |
Crown stays are the vertical stay bolts shown in this cutaway |

If the TR has a beat-up old boiler that's surplus to requirements, then you should cut it open like this one and put it on display
