| | History of the Plough |
| | Back in the 1930's, horse and early tractor ploughs operated with furrow widths of 6 to 9in. | | | Therefore, ploughs have to have a means of front furrow width adjustment to ensure the plough is compatible to the tractor wheel settings. | | | This allows the plough frame to swing in line with the tractor to prevent the rear wheel or bodies from hitting the ground. |

| | plough |
| | 1000 horses as well as oxen were being used to pull wheeled ploughs, equipped with a ploughshare for cutting a furrow, a blade for forming the walls of the furrow (called a coulter), and a mouldboard to turn the furrow. | | | Even in the past thirty years, the advent of reversible ploughing and far more powerful four-wheel-drive tractors have greatly improved efficiency. | | | The bottom is designed so that it slices into the ground and turns the soil over. |

| | The Origins of Plough Monday, by Peter Millington |
| | Furthermore, in Lincolnshire at least, sokemen were required to bring their ploughs for one day's ploughing at the winter sowing. | | | Having said this however, the Plough Monday distribution does correspond approximately with the northern half of the region where the open field system of farming was used. | | | Another possibility is that Plough Monday originated in the agricultural labour service associated with socage tenancy. |

| | Rotherham Web: The Invention of the Rotherham plough by Stanyforth and Foljambe |
| | Two of the simplest and best constructed ploughs for land, which is neither very heavy nor sandy; to be drawn by two horses; to have spare shades and coulters; and a mould, on which to form new irons, when the old ones are worn out, or will require repairing. | | | It was referred to as a swing plough, because no depth wheel was used, it was like ploughs before it, constructed from wood. | | | This new design was considered by all who saw it at work to be more efficient as it was light and economical enough in draught to be drawn by a pair of horses. |
