At the turn of the century farm work revolved around the horse.  In 1975 the Anglia Bygones team filmed men in their eighties and nineties who had worked with farm horses from before the First World War.

The regularity of the horseman's day, the hierarchy in the stable, the high standards of workmanship, the secrets of ointments and horse lore - they talked about it all, and the Bygones team re-created their working lives.

They showed ploughing, drilling, rolling, haymaking and the harvest as well as the farrier and the travelling stallion.
