Summary[edit]

Description
English: An army mule tied in a wooden crush or stocks to hold it steady while it is shod. Two soldiers are standing chatting nearby. The farrier's bellows can be seen in the foreground. They appear to be foot-operated bellows and would have been used to heat the charcoal to soften the iron for the horseshoes.

This photograph appears to have been taken in an area well behind the lines as there are overhead cables for telephone or electricity. This farrier's station is far more permanent than some shown in other photographs of the Front.
[Original reads: 'A mule in stocks waiting to be shod.']
