We are now entering the preparation stage for the new build so, with immediate effect, the walkway from the car park to the outdoor arena will no longer be in use. Access to the outdoor arena will now be through the top of the equine yard.

Could we please ask that you keep to the walkway to the arena and not go down through the yard or touch any of the college horses.

The toilets in the machinery building are also closed, the only toilets are those near the hay barn.

Exciting times ahead but please bear with us during the build which is expected to last approximately 18 months. Thank you 😀
