Discard heap at the side of the wagon – I like the jumbled texture. This had been discarded because it had got wet.

I adore old fashioned farm machinery – they always bring back memories of growing up on a farm.

There’s such a lot of old machinery around Southland isn’t there? I love it when they get it up and running – completely different seeing it in action!
