Haywain Cart, Oxon & Plow

The photo showing the team of Oxon pulling a plough is ex-Royal Military College of Science, Shrivenham, Library. It was likely donated by one of the family Wilson who occupied Cowleaze Farm, Shrivenham from 1896 to 1918, before moving to a farm in Bishopstone nearby.

Three small photos of a group of people on board a Haywain Cart. Unfortunately we have no names or dates for these. However, it's likely to be local to Shrivenham as it looks very much like the late Vic Day of Shrivenham in two of the photos.
