About the sound
The sound of wagon on the pavement. The recording was realized in the National Museum of Agriculture and Agricultural-Food Industry in Szreniawa (Poland).
Wooden wagons were used for collecting straw and hay from the field as well as for transporting people. The wheels were wooden, handmade by a wheelwright. They were often powered by oxen. The recorded wagon is a contemporary device manufactured for educational purposes to be used during educational classes in the museum. During the recording it was powered by two men.
