DocArchive (1979): Dray Horses of Dublin

Dray horses were animals bred for hard heavy tasks like pulling a heavy load. Into the 1900s, they were used for practical work pulling wagons or ploughing fields. The dray-men were part of Dublin city street life delivering coal, and working the fruit and vegetable markets. (First Broadcast 1979)
