Hay Farm is now the only Rare Breed Approved Conservation Centre in the Country, which is dedicated to the Heavy Horses. Not only will visitors see the Clydesdales Heavy Horses, but also other animals which would have been common place in the era of the working horse. These include the now very rare British Lop Eared pigs – Thelma and Louise, The Sebastopol Geese – George and Mildred, along with the Oxford & Lincolnshire Longwool sheep.
The main objective of the centre is to raise awareness of the importance that the heavy horses played within our history before the introduction of mechanical power.
Carriage Rides also available see website.
