Casgliadau Arlein

Slate slab wagon, from the Berwyn Slate Quarry. Wooden frame, consisting of rectangular sectioned balks of timber, is mounted on two axles. Each axle is fitted with two double-flanged wheels, which are free to slide to gauge on the axles. A strip of steel extends the length of the wagon, with a hole at both ends, probably intended as a drawbar (for horse haulage?).
