Hired Lad and Team

Description

Copy of a photograph dating from the turn of the 19th/20th century, of a hired lad with a two-horse team in fields at Thixendale (North Yorkshire). The horses are harnessed to a Cambridge Roll. The boy wears dress typical of East Riding farm labourers, with corduroy bell-bottoms (often tied at the knee) and a double-breasted waistcoat or small jacket. (Although Thixendale is now situated in North Yorkshire, it lies close to the Yorkshire Wolds in the East Riding.) Mounted on Photo File card with LAVC/PHO/P1688. With ms. note. Originally held in Photo File: Community Life.
