Date: 1907 -

Description: Green barrow with a red wheel. The barrow was built for Thomas Murdoch about 1907. It remained at St Andrew's Montpelier Road (later Sandy Bay Road) for 70 years then a further 25 years at Red Chapel Avenue. The front, bottom and sides were replaced in 1999 due to termite attack. Hopefully it will not again be used as a garden implement but rather preserved as an exhibit of the past. The woven handle grips are a modern extra.
