Descrizione
A whippletree, sometimes also called an 'equalizer' or 'leader bar', is a tool used to distribute a pulling force evenly. Wippletrees are used for draught animals, to ensure that multiple animals take an equal share of the load (or to balance the load pulled by animals of different strength). This whippletree is 43" long, and has a central hook for pulling even loads. It was used at Wilhamstead, Bedfordshire.
