Sort of thing that used to lie in hedgerows around farms in the
dozens including ours back in the sixties. Then there was that 70's
80's fad to fill pubs with old tat to create "atmosphere". When that
phase passed a lot of things were just skipped and lost.
Not many things left in hedges now as pikeys have found most of them.
Hopefully whoever takes the drill will keep it intact but sadly many
want it for the wheels only to decorate a wall or something until the
next decor change when they will be lost.
