Recommend me a farrier pls

[fabbydo]

Hi. Can anyone recommend a farrier in the Swindon/Chippenham area? Very well behaved horse on yard with large undercover shoeing area. Farrier must be willing to work closely with my vet and be reliable. Thanks.

You're looking at quite a wide area Which are you closer too?
Try Simon Watkins or Christian Ferris, they're around midway.

Our farrier is Greig Elliot he is amazing! Definitely the best you'll find around here. He is based in Bristol, we live in West Littleton (chippenham) and he comes up to do our horses and Harry Meade's. He also does Nick Gauntlett's horses. Have barefoot horses and one with severe laminitis ever since we've had Greig he's seen massive improvements (though this also has to do with other things). Can't remember exactly what he takes, he's expensive but definitely worth it. I've had so many bad experiences with farriers and it's so important to have a good one!
