Preparing to collect some hay

This deceptively-simple apparatus is like a giant rake, which collects-up hay as the horse walks forward through the cut crop. It has an ingenious 'plus' in that the operator can make it tip-up and shed its load when full, then righting the machine and continuing to gather more see NT9334 : Collecting some hay. At the "Festival of the Heavy Horse" in Milfield, see NT9334 : The first heavy horse festival comes to the UK.
