Caroline and Paul are here again to help us with the many jobs that we have about the place
With such a crack team, we thought it time to tackle a major job:
excavate the piece of ironwork that we found buried in the fruit garden back in 2010

Wow! Now, how do you use that, and what is it for? Looks like an edger, lol.
Wow, what IS that? Looks like an edger, lol. Too cool for school! What else lies there-under?
I know! we only saw about 10% of it sticking out of the ground, and it just kept on going back and back into the ground.
It is a horse drawn plough. I think it's a 'Wexford single furrow plough', used for potato ridges.
Much happy searching online awaits!
Will keep you posted....
