Have found a really nice yard for my horse but the roof is rather low. I measured it and it is just under 7ft.

My mare is 15.2, do you think this will be too low for her? The yard owner did say she could be moved to one of the other stables which has a higher roof as soon as one becomes free.

What do you think? Too low or do you think she would fit?

my horse has a low roof in his stable and it does not bother him he did bang it when we first moved in but since then he has not banged it and im not a bad mum i made sure he was alright and was waiting for a new stable but it doesnt seem to get in his way now.

For a 15h2" a 7' roof should be alright...I have a 16h2" & I wouldn't put him in there. I doubt if I would put my horse in any stable where to roof is lower than his trailer roof.
