Details of Event
Deceased was driving a set of three full tubs outbye from the flat to the landing. As he came to the double (wood) doors, the trapper propped open the inner door and went to open the outer. The pony suddenly stopped with its head just through the first door owing to the deceased having fallen off and got jammed under the first tub.
