Horn
The horn shows signs of having been worked with a slight incision made in the narrow part and a hole cut into the side filled with a cork bung.
Rake
Like many crofting activities, haymaking was a communal or family affair with young children often given the relatively straightforward task of raking the remaining loose hay left after the adults and older siblings had completed the main gathering.
