Unsellable horses and cost of living

[reynold]

My 1980 livery costs were from London suburban yard that was both livery and riding school with again no TO

In 1960 my riding school, again in London suburb, charged 7/6 (38p) for an hours lesson. It had many liveries as well as the school. I suppose even then being in the suburbs there was less opportunity for people to keep horses on their own land.

I don't blame YOs for taking the cash and running when offered financial security by a housing developer, particularly in the current COL crisis.

Tbh it’s hard to see how the type of riding school I learnt in can exist in the current situation .
It was such a good riding school .
Like something out of a child’s book .

Mine would never have passed health and safety regs now.
