Description
Yokes like this were used for carrying buckets about the farms, most commonly in the dairy. The yoke was carried on the shoulders and the buckets hung on the chains at either end. The arched cut out shape in the wooden body fits around the carrier's neck. This yoke was used by John Anstee when he was a boy in 1933 to carry water from the village pump at High Roding.
