Keith Bryan. He is fabulous. Taken from his website


Keith is a lecturer for the Society of Master Saddlers on the Saddle Fitting Foundation Course held annually at Warwickshire College for saddle design; saddle trees and saddle fitting. A registered Saddle Fitter himself, and past President of The Society of Master Saddlers UK Ltd, Keith says, "The design, fit and build quality is his priority".

As a founder member of the Walsall Equestrian Society, Keith believes that the riding public has the right to know the Country of origin of their riding equipment. All saddles produced in his own workshop carry the Society of Master Saddler Logo . The mark that guarantees 100% made in England.
 
Errrr, wouldn't touch Jo Beavis with a barge pole! Known plenty of people have her, and then have to have her every month to re fit the badly fitted saddle - and at £90 a time.....

Although she is a lovely woman, this is what I have heard as well from many sources (never had her to do any of mine so cannot speak from personal experience). Also her saddles are top end, not sure about doing 2nd hand ones.

I know Laura Dempsey has a good reputation, or how about Rimmell Saddles in Shipton?

There is a saddler in Bromsgrove or thereabouts - think their called revolver (or something similar) that fitted a wide ID for a friend some time ago. Might also be worth a look.
