WW Stuff - 'I remember ... the huge shire horses pulling the dust cart ' :

" the horse drawing a cart would occasionally "take (tek) boggarts" as we used to say. This meant it would be startled and dash off down the road, with the driver in hot pursuit. Many years later I heard on a word program named 'Call My Bluff' on TV that the dictionary definition of a "Boggard" was a spirit that frightened a horse. Just goes to show that dialect is often a corruption of a real word."
