Beschrijving
This one way reversible plough comes from Cornwall, where it was known locally as a 'butterfly plough'. It was made by Draydon of Helland Bridge, near Bodmin, Cornwall, after a design by Skelton of Luxulyan, Cornwall. It has two mouldboards attached to the beam, so that when one is engaged on one side of the plough, the other is lifted up in the air.
