What am I?

On Thursday, Team 8 had a go at descriptive writing.
We learned that we had to build a picture in our readers mind by using lots of describing words (adjectives.

Hare are some of our "descriptions". Can you guess what we are?

clue: They are 'olden day' things that we saw at the Howick Historical Village.
