Harry Moss, 14, was fatally injured when he became trapped in an agricultural accident in Malvern, Worcestershire, on Thursday – just a month before his 15th birthday.

Another man was also injured and taken to hospital but his injuries are not believed to be life-threatening or life-changing. Harry’s father, Lewis Moss, 39, said it was not yet clear how his son died or what job he was doing at Hillview farm in Malvern.

In a tribute on Mail Online, he said: “All Harry ever wanted to be was a farmer. He loved everything about the countryside and everything about farming,” he said.

“At a very early age, he set his sights on being a farmer when he left school. He was such a lovely lad. He was polite, hardworking, and he was never any trouble to me. I never had a single worry about him. He would have been 15 in a month and I cannot believe he has gone. He was my world.”
