About MeFive wooden slat base construction with metal axle and five leaf spring suspension. Each side has two square metal brackets, possibly for straps or slings to support a load or may have been where sides fitted into.

Also along the sides, three hooks remain of a system of four which would have held netting or further support ropes.

There is a square metal shaft bracket on one end which is in line with another underneath. These would have taken a steering bar which is now missing.

Each end of the cart has two curved metal bumpers on the outside edges.

The underside has metal strengthening bars and a wooden cross beam which dips in the centre.
