Replica Tramroad Wagons |
The project was initiated by the Gloucestershire Society
for Industrial Archaeology and was paid for by the South West
Regional Development Agency. The wagons were made by Dorothea Restorations of Bristol
to a design by David McDougall based on photographs of those
in use on the Leckhampton Hill branch of the tramroad in
the early 20th century. The stone sleeper blocks had come from
a siding on the north side of the nearby Barge Arm and the cast-iron
rails had been found years ago on the south side of the Barge
Arm. |
