surreys

Fringed four-wheeled carriages

Surreys is the plural of surrey, a light four-wheeled horse-drawn carriage popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

A surrey typically has two seats facing forward and often features a fringed canopy top, as immortalized in the song "The Surrey with the Fringe on Top" from the musical Oklahoma!

They rented a surrey for a romantic ride through the park.
