Penny-farthing depictions, Penygraig
Located here https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6109411 at the edge of the Soar Centre. The penny-farthing, also known as the ordinary, was the first machine to be called a bicycle. It was popular in the 1870s and 1880s. It became obsolete in the late 1880s with the development of modern bicycles.
