Brougham (carriage)

A brougham[a] is a 19th century four-wheeled carriage drawn by a single horse.

It was named after the politician and jurist Lord Brougham, who had this type of carriage built to his specification by London coachbuilder Robinson & Cook in 1838.

The brougham has an enclosed body with two doors and sits two passengers; there are two fold-away seats in the front corners for small children.

The carriage body has a front window so that the passengers can see forward.
