Birdseye View Of The Late Prince Consorts Model Farm At Windsor
Birdseye view of the late Prince Consort's model farm at Windsor, 1862. 'Show farm...erected with the view of benefiting the agricultural community by showing the most approved systems of breeding, rearing, housing, and tending all descriptions of livestock, and of performing in the most economical manner the various operations of the homestead...the Prince was desirous that each description or breed of animals be kept distinct from every other, and not unnecessarily disturbed - repose being requisite to ensure their rapidly fattening...The range behind the steward's house comprises Foreman's cottage, nag stable, hospital for sick stock, poultry department, blacksmiths' and carpenters' shops, timber-yard, sawpit, &c...[The barn] is fitted up with steam-engine, thrashing-machine, oat, bean, and oilcake crushing-mills, flour-mill, chaff-cutters, elevators, hoisting machinery, &c.; while the waste steam is used for cooking roots and other foods for the cattle...it is a complete manufactory for converting into food for man and cattle the produce grown on the farm...about two hundred sheep are annually fattened...The sheep stand on sparred floors, so that their droppings pass into a vault beneath, whence it is carted away as manure when wanted'.
