Buckroe Beach Carousel
Buckroe Beach Carousel, Historical carousel in Hampton, United States.
The Buckroe Beach Carousel features 48 hand-carved wooden horses arranged in three rows and two wooden chariots within its 45-foot diameter platform.
The Philadelphia Toboggan Company constructed this wooden carousel in 1920 for the Buckroe Beach Amusement Park, where it operated until 1985.

Each wooden horse on the carousel received individual restoration between 1988 and 1991 by R&F Designs of Bristol, Connecticut.
