Knocker or plunger churn in the form of an oak coopered barrel with five iron bands, tapering from the bastowards a cylindrical collar of ash (which is loose). The plunger with a long wooden handle would be worked up and down and rotated to churn the butter. This type of churn was common from the 1600s into the late 1800s.
