This massive and stately vehicle dates from 1850, when it was built at Maplestead in North Essex.
It is typical of the traditional style built in Suffolk and North Essex, with high panelled sides and a heavy waisted frame.
Both the large rear and smaller front wheels are straked, and have wooden axles.
There are fittings for double shafts and a carrier's seat, so it will have been used as a road waggon as well as for farm duties.
Also available in 1/8th scale JT20A
