On Valhalla Mountain Farms, breeders of Pura Raza Española (PRE) Andalusian and Andalusian cross horses, this seriously old manure spreader is displayed on the west side of the highway, below highway level, just south of the entrance to the farm.

Manufacturer and age are unknown. Ground driven, it was likely made before PTOs became prevalent in the mid to late 1930s. There is a second, somewhat newer, manure spreader on display along the lane, further back from the highway.
