Stump Puller - Pembroke Ontario - Old Agricultural Equipment on Waymarking.com

When the mechanical stump puller (sometimes called a capstan) made its welcome appearance, the chore of removing stumps by hand became a lot easier. It had a drum to which a long sweep was attached. A horse or team hitched to the end of the sweep went round and round in a circle winding up the steel cable until the stump came out.

Use or Purpose of Equipment: Stump removal. Approximate age: circa 1800s. Still in Use?: No Location: On the grass at the Champlain Trail Museum and Pioneer Village. Fee for Access: no Manufacturer and model: Not listed
