Cross Country
We can offer a cross country course of approximately 60 fences including:
-
WATER COMPLEX
-
BANKS
-
DITHCHES
-
COMBINATIONS
The entire cross country area has up to 60 fences with excellent viewing , the jumps range in size from 2ft 6 through to 3ft 6. Ideal for teaching and used by many riding clubs, pony clubs and British Eventing Clinics.
The course has been designed by British Eventing Accredited Designer Simon Bere , who is also a Technical Delegate for British Eventing.
With further design and input from Domonic Moore of Jumps One. A local accredited course builder and designer with close links to West Buckland Horse Trials outside Taunton.
Built with locally sourced timber and some recycled materials.
The location has been specifically chosen for the drainage of the old turf to provide consistent and secure footing with good grass coverage throughout the year.
We asked that every rider wears a British Eventing approved crash hat and body protector. They use the facility entirely at their own risk.
The use of the cross country schooling course can only be used by prior arrangement.
There are all weather approaches and landings at some jump complexes, we hope to add to these over time. The cross country area is fully enclosed, the gates must be shut at all times.
The site is owned by The Cricket St Thomas Estate and the farming is sheep orientated. Please keep all dogs on leads at all times. Visitors co operation is appreciated. Thank you.
There is ample parking adjacent to the course, we would recommend that you keep all vehicles locked. There is also good mobile phone coverage. Please stick to our access and departure routes to avoid blockages and inconvenience to visitors and our neighbours! Thank you.
