  • Description
    This turnip peck is an implement used for lifting root crops for feeding livestock. It is similar in design to a pitchfork as the tines are set in a line with the handle, rather than at right angles like other turnip pecks. It was called by the donor a 'prong' or 'turnip fork'. It was used at Berkswell, near Coventry.
