You horsey folk dont seem to know a lot about horse ploughing. The horse and pony are on cleanland which is a lot easier than ley ground. (cleanland is ploughed after growing tatties and neeps. The tree of the horse is fornent the plough, the ponys tree is ofset from the plough.The ploughman was a wise man.
