Horse Drawn Tramways

A presentation by Heather Hurley based on the research for her book. The early tramways of the Wye Valley were a short-lived transport system of horse-drawn waggons on rails operating from the late eighteenth century to the introduction of steam locomotives, primarily used for transporting goods such as coal, lime and minerals.

Heather Hurley has written many books about local topics.
