Apart from our Heavy Horse Experience days we can provide heavy horses for your wedding, local event, private function or film and TV work.
For many years we have provided demonstrations at Agricultural Shows, Country Shows and Game Fairs. We have also been hired by various councils, authorities and trusts for community events and parades. References are available on request.
We have a wide variety of demonstrations we can supply for events, here is just a sample.
Driving horses in traditional English or Canadian Amish harness, either a farm implement or a wheeled vehicle.
Timber extraction demonstration
Period Re-
Classic and modern horse drawn machinery used on our horse powered farm.
Practical work undertaken in the past includes:-
Commercial timber extraction on environmentally sensitive or sloping sites with poor access.
Pasture management including chain harrowing and rolling, on small plots which a contractor and tractor will not take on.
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.
