Ploughing by John Barnes

This image was taken by John Barnes of Woodhouse Farm near Milnthorpe. It shows Tim Robinson ploughing his field near Ackenthwaite. The field had previously been sprayed and after ploughing he will be planting peas and grass whole crop.
The Pentalk Rural Archive project began in June 2007 to assemble a collection of digital images of rural life in Cumbria. The collection will eventually be made into an exhibition.
