1920's Fowler Diesel Motor Tackle
Our neighbour Roy Day (shown in the first photo) has lent us these unique photos of the 1920's Fowler Motor Ploughing Tackle which his family operated in Norfolk and Suffolk in the 'Forties and 'Fifties.

Our interest in these unique machines has prompted Roy Day to start researching their history with his family. He is hoping to find more photographs and as soon as he does, we will post them here along with any other information which he can provide.
These same tractors were recently sold in a sale and these photographs are what they look like today. Together with a picture of the plough which used to go with them:-
