The big Massey was a relatively new model at that time, replacing the 1505 and 1805.
What is the yellow tractor with boats?
Combines have come on a bit!
Is the IH a 6 or 5 74? Looks quite new in the photo.

As best I can tell the yellow tractor is a Minneapolis-Moline (Twin City), although there is a wiff of Allis to it.
I don't know when the combine arrived at that farm. The photo was taken in 1982 and was still in use when the farm was dispersed around 1988.
The IH is a 1977 574 taken in 1982. It was well looked after.

The chain gang picture looks like something from the Keystone Cops.

Poor old boy with the pick is going to be there a while.
What's with the tailboards on the Renault tippers?

Great pics Steve :claphands: the bloke on the frame in the 5th photo down, that would not be allowed today, Health & Safety would do their nut :lol: the Poclain 75 of Gallaghers I wonder where that was taken? The Hymac 580B with the non-standard engine canopy on it in the last but one photo, looks like its got a taller radiator fitted. :think:
