Haymaking at "Heatherly", Pinnacle Swamp, Rylstone


Photo: Shirley Tunnicliff collection

The person on the load of hay is my Mother Sylvia Ferguson née Mulholland. We used to bring the hay to a shed on the road to the house where it was pitchforked into the shed to be cut up by using a chaff cutter. The chaff was used to feed our horses and cows. The shed is not there any more but if you look at the next photo you will see the shed at the top of the photo.
Photo taken 1930's.
