British National Ploughing Championships - Chieftain tank ploughing
British National Ploughing Championships - Chieftain tank ploughing
This was just a rather mad demonstration and not part of the competition. The tank is a Chieftain Mk11 British main battle tank made in 1968. It was acquired for preservation after 30 years as a gate guardian. The plough is a Dowdeswell DP7E reversible plough. Four demonstrations were done during the course of the day.
