Collection, Preservation and Display of Old Lawn Mowers

MCBRIDE (Wm) & SONS

A Cork firm. Early 20th century makers of a horse-drawn thistle-cutter. This is of interest inasmuch as it employed three forged steel knives mounted on a disc which revolved by spur and bevel gearing driven from the main axle. An early example of a disc mower, albeit for agricultural use.
