Pony and trap in northern England.
A trap, pony trap (sometimes pony and trap) or horse trap is a light, often sporty, two-wheeled or sometimes four-wheeled[citation needed] horse- or pony-drawn carriage, usually accommodating two to four persons in various seating arrangements, such as face-to-face or back-to-back.[citation needed]
"Pony and trap" is also used as Cockney rhyming slang for "crap" meaning nonsense or rubbish, or defecation.[1]
