Antique Hand Pulled Milk Cart
For sale is an unusual Edwardian Hand Pulled Milk Cart. The top of the cart is sheltered by a canopy, with decoration on the side which reads "By appoint to H.M The King" with "Express Dairy Co Ld" underneath. The top of the cart is fitted to carry an ample amount of milk bottles. Below this, there are two doors opening to reveal space for milk churns. The milk cart is in an original condition, with all of its original paintwork and decoration. The cart once belonged to Lord Rayleigh Farms which at the time owned over 8,000 acres of farmland in Essex and Suffolk and supplied the people of London, including the royal household.
Width: 66" Depth: 43.5" Height: 61"
When the great agricultural depression of the 1880’s came, ruining many tenant farmers and causing them to abandon their farms it was physicist John Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh at the helm. Fortuitously, his younger brother, Edward Strutt, was a keen farmer and countryman, so in partnership with his brother they took the land in hand and farmed it under the name of Lord Rayleigh’s Farms. Edward Strutt was an outstandingly successful farmer and businessman the secret of his success was establishing the mixed (arable and dairy) farming system. All costs, including the cows’ feed to individual milk yields were meticulously recorded to enable informed management decision making, and implement economies. His success at Terling soon came to the notice of other landowners, who asked him to manage their land.
Great for a themed bar or restaurant. FB Antiques, long standing members of LAPADA (London and Provincial Antique Dealers Association), has been established since 1960 in London and had three shops supplying the home and overseas trade. We relocated from London 30 years ago to Rayleigh in Essex, to a 40,000 sqft warehouse from which we shipped approximately 120 containers a year. 5 years ago we downsized to our storage premises in Rettendon Essex, and now operate from our 15,000 sqft showroom and workshops, still supplying home and overseas trade as well as many members of the general public.
We pride ourselves on pricing our furniture at competitive prices. We are only 30 miles from London and are open 7 days a week for viewing. We are always willing to do a deal with the client and will try and assist in any way possible.
