Miners Pit Pony Equipment

 

£180.00

ex. VAT

 

Collection of vintage Pit Pony / working pony equipment.

Includes Saddle, Bridle and Shoe Covers.

This kind of saddle was  for horses or ponies who had to work with heavy loads in mines,  on the land or in towns. The broadly padded saddle, with its channel for a ridge chain carrying the shafts, gave plenty of load-bearing surface to save the horse's back.

Leather Bridle with eye protectors and bit.

Hoof covers not only protect the ponies frog and soles but also prevented them sinking into the soft mud and leaving deep tracks.
