The Heavy Horse Experience
-
‘The Heavy Horse Experience’ aims to give you a
flavour of what it was like to handle and work with a Shire or
Clydesdale horse. The emphasis is on ‘hands on’ from the moment you
arrive. No experience is necessary; all our horses are true working
horses still used on the land and probably the last working horses
in Shropshire. Come and experience a ‘ton’ of real horsepower for
yourself!.
