The route that Eston Equitation Centre uses to hack onto the college field has had the chicane narrowed, which means horses can no longer fit through. The landowners have done this to stop the motorbikes. Unfortunately it doesn’t stop them at all; but it stops the horses!
This is really detrimental to the riding school as it means that although situated with direct off road access to the hills, they don’t have any access to the bridleway in the country park.
They have ridden the route for well over 20 years and because of that they can apply to have it changed to a bridleway.
In order to do that they need as many witness statements as possible to say they have ridden this route.
They would be really grateful if anyone could fill in a statement document. They are all paper format. Eston Equestrian Centre can get one to you or you can collect one from their reception.
If anyone has any photos of them riding this route that would be really helpful.
Any help is much appreciated.
