Dunton Reading

The Reading style, seen here, is one of the six types of wagons used by the Romani. The name Dunton, wagon builders of Reading, England, became synonymous with this style of wagon they created. Some of the wagon’s unique features include the gargoyle heads at the four corners of the roof that are connected to the gutter systems, removable stairs for easier access to the living compartment, a queen size bed in the very rear of the wagon with a bed below for the children and a queenie wood stove for heating, as meals were typically cooked over an open fire.
