A "galloping gig" pushchair owned by Queen Victoria is up for auction in Salisbury today (1st October 2025).

It's designed to resemble a horse-drawn carriage, and is believed to have been used by Victoria's grandchildren.

A photograph in the Royal Collection from 1899 shows young King Edward VIII and King George VI playing in a similar gig at Park Cottage.

Two grey horses on the pushchair move up and down when the gig is pushed.

It's expected to fetch between ÂŁ1200 and ÂŁ1800 at Woolley And Wallis, City Centre Salerooms, 51-61 Castle Street, SP1 3SU.
