Included in this month’s Rearview is an article about the recent discovery of a working Pullinger Trap, which was found by staff at the Museum of English Rural Life, University of Reading. The amazing part of the discovery was the fact that the trap, which dates back to the 1860s, was still working and had a captured rodent. Below is a slideshow of additional photos provided to PCT by the Museum of English Rural Life.
