Tramway wagon, Stover Canal, 2020

This shows a replica tramway wagon, loaded with granite blocks, and the placement of its wheels against the granite blocks that formed the tramway rails. The outer surfaces of the blocks were cut away, leaving an upright projecting section that guided the inside of the wagon wheels. This can be seen very clearly in this image. See also images MR 0001, MR 0002 and MR 0003 that show the granite tramway at Haytor. The text of the commemorative plaque on the wagon can be seen in image PBS 0036.
