  • A flat cart built by Gibbs. The floor sloped inwards to keep produce boxes secure.

    Many types of agricultural carts and wagons were built by Gibbs and in particular, there was a steady trade in dung carts. Dung was an essential commodity for any farmer in an age before artificial fertiliser, for without it, his land would soon become exhausted by the continual growing of crops. Many growers would collect the dung from London stables on the return journey from market, when their wagons were empty.
