Rent a Barrel Top Wagon

 

The Wagon

If ever there was one symbol that represents traditional Traveller culture, it is the wagon. Colourful, practical, comfortable and warm it was home for thousands of Traveller families over the years. It is the enduring image of a time when Travellers were treasured as skilled crafts people, welcome musicians and a vital part of Irish life.

 

Barrell Top Restoration

Restoring a traditional Barrell Top Wagon has been one of the most successful projects the Workshops have ever run. In early 2006, three men from Meath Travellers Workshops Ltd began work, using an original wheel base.

The wagon was officially launched as part of Navan Traveller Focus Week June 2008. Since then it has become a favourite fixture at local fairs and family days around the country and has even visited Stormant in Belfast and appeared on RTE television.
