Apart from our Heavy Horse Experience days we can provide heavy horses for your wedding, local event, private function or film and TV work. |
|
Some of our previous engagements have included demonstrations at Agricultural and Country Shows, Game Fairs and similar events. |
|
Our basic demonstrations are as follows:- |
(“Snigging” is the woodman’s term for dragging timber out of woodland into a clear area where it can be stacked or loaded onto a vehicle.) |
|
|
|
Practical work undertaken in the past and which we are quite happy to do again:- |
|
Commercial timber extraction on environmentally sensitive or sloping sites with poor access. |
|
Horses can go where a motor vehicle physically cannot or where use of a vehicle would damage the ground. Our horses have worked alongside modern machinery hauling thinnings out of areas inaccessible to wheeled vehicles. |
| If you have any other commercial work for which you would like to use horses, we will be happy to discuss your ideas and work with you to develop a practical work plan. |
| Film and TV work:- |
|
Our horses have been used in a number of productions and we are happy to undertake such work in the future. |
| Productions in which we have been used include:- |
|
Horizon, Inspector Morse (1998), The Battle of Bunker Hill, Heart of the Country, Flog it! |
|
Schooling and Training Courses. |
|
We also train and school client’s heavy horses for draught work. We can start with an unbroken horse and school it in arable and carriage work. This can be done at your own or our premises. |
|
The Heavy Horse Experience offers bespoke training courses for the new or aspiring heavy horse owner and ‘Improvers Courses’ are available for existing owners, wishing to develop their harness and driving skills etc. |
