taken 18 years ago, near to Tunstall, Kent, England

Swale Ploughing Match
Swale Ploughing Match
The weather was changeable, the field rather muddy and by the time the plough-off took place most people had gone home. I included this shot because it shows the curiously curved (and rather wobbly) field boundary, indicated by the line of trees. I assume the two fields belong to different farms. The match took place on Grove End Farm but the slate-roofed oast in the background is Oakwood Farm on Ruins Barn Road. For more pictures of the ploughing match see TQ8961
