4-wheel dray / wagonette (over 100 years old) – 95% original condition. Size: fits 13hh to 14.2hh horses. Description: this is an absolute survivor and a rare find in this condition. It is an authentic 4-wheel dray, well over 100 years old, that is 95% original.
It has only ever had very light paint touch-ups over the years to keep it looking sharp. Every single nut, bolt, spring, axle, and warner wheel is completely original to the vehicle. Versatile setup: comes with demountable bench seats, so you can easily switch it between a passenger wagonette and a traditional flat dray.
Ready to go: unlike most antiques that are just for show, this one is in tip-top, solid, usable condition. It is completely sound and ready for everyday use or pleasure driving. You will not find another fully original piece of history like this in a hurry. Serious enquiries only, please.

Hillam Twino, made for my 15hh cob. Some surface rust but nothing spray paint wouldn't sort.
Anybody who knows these carriages knows they are very well made and will last forever. Bench seat. Extras include grab rails for easy access, back step, mudguards fitted and a tow bar, so its legal to tow behind a car.
A great carriage, just not being used.
