Thank you, Helen and Kathy. Hi Helen, Thank you so much for gathering together so much information and fun facts! This was extremely useful! I have a couple of questions if you don't mind, regarding riding as a fun pastime. Thanks for getting in touch. In answer to your question - yes! I think the more 'sober' habits came in with the Victorians, and were mainly for the hunting field. Kathy's blue velvet habit shows that lovely colours and materials were used for travel, and her French costume indicts the more 'elegant' habits. I have added a new page above - see 'Costumes' on the menu bar for all Kathy's costumes, although I don't have good photos of all of them In fact, horse dealers parading horses for sale in Rotten Through England on a Side-saddle, London, during the Victorian era wanted'nicely dressed' i. This would attract a gentleman's eye and encourage him to buy the horse. A bit like scantily-clad models draped over car bonnets today! I don't think the apron changed much until circa WWI when dress lengths started getting shorter although I'm not totally certain of that - seems logical though Feel free to email me if you want to chat more: author [AT] helenhollick [DOT] net. Video Ponies Aside! Ladies Ride Aside! History of Side Saddle. Downton Abbey has revived an interest in riding aside — which is the Through England on a Side-saddle term for riding Side Saddle. My daughter rides and competes and jumps aside. Hoefnagel, Mencia de Mendoza, detail of tapestry cartoon Bernart van Orley, Epona, Celtic Goddess of horses. Prioress However, women with determined characters and a mind of their own seem to have chosen either aside or astride. Which begs the question, was one a revered lady with a sense of decorum and Through England on a Side-saddle other somewhat headstrong? The sideways facing "chair" was then turned to face the front - think of a typical western cowboy saddle with a tall front pommel, but with the saddle itself looking like a chair, with a high back. The lady would face front, her back supported by the 'chair' with her right leg hooked round the pommel. This is possibly the Through England on a Side-saddle of saddle Elizabeth Through England on a Side-saddle and Anne Boleyn would have used when riding. It is unknown when the upright horn, the one the rider hooks her right leg around, came into use. The second horn, an appendage that comes from the right side of the saddle, is commonly attributed to Catherine de Medici This horn cradled the right leg between the two horns and therefore faced the rider forward, but Albert Durer's etchings of and show ladies facing the front long before Catherine's second horn came into being. The horn, however, gave women a more secure seat, an independent control of their horses, and enabled a faster gaits. It is interesting to note that we now ride aside with the legs on the near left side of the horse — which is also the traditional side to mount and lead from, but in early images including Greek and Roman the women are often the opposite way round. It seems that ladies did ride astride, particularly when hunting too fast a pace for the literally sitting sideways saddles. However, a big problem would be what to wear underneath. Bloomers were Through England on a Side-saddle in use then, so either women donned men's apparel, or they had very chafed thighs. H ow did they ride astride with those voluminous skirts? Were they split in the middle like modern culottes? Queen Elizabeth I rode side saddle on ceremonial occasions and, as depicted in woodcuts, also while hawking. Whether this was the forward chair or the 'Medici' two horns, we don't know. She rose early to go hunting and would then socialised before attending balls and parties in the evening. In the earliest pack of hounds was recorded in Through England on a Side-saddle, with the Marquis of Salisbury recorded as Master. When ill health forced him to retire from hunting inLady Salisbury took over the responsibility of the hunt, a position which she maintained for thirty-five years. Moving the hounds to the family residence of Hatfield House, Lady Salisbury absorbed herself with running the hunt. Despite her slight build she was renowned as a fearless rider. This was before the modern security of the leaping head had been invented. Lady Salisbury is at the front in her sky blue habit. Even with failing eyesight and becoming frail, she would spend an entire day in the hunting field, insisting that her grooms tie her to her hunter so she could not fall off. Another groom would act as her guide with her horse on a leading rein. Lady Through England on a Side-saddle died on the 22nd November It is believed that she was writing at her desk when the feathers in her hair caught alight on a candle. A horrible end to such an Through England on a Side-saddle life. Celia Fiennes was born in at Newton Toney, near Salisbury. She is remembered for her diary account of a series of journeys which she made between and riding side Through England on a Side-saddle through every County in England, accompanied by Through England on a Side-saddle two servants. At this time travel was still quite novel, England was largely an unmapped wilderness with tracks, not roads, no road signs, no motorway Service Stations or conveniently placed motels. Not surprisingly, she encountered numerous mishaps: twice she was thrown from her mount but these accidents failed to upset or discourage her, indicating that her nerves were just as strong as her body. Her diaries provides and invaluable insight into the social and domestic attitudes of 17th-century England. Her descriptions of Bath, Epsom, Hampstead, Tunbridge and Dulwich to Through England on a Side-saddle their waters, shed a light on the medical beliefs of the period. Her lavish interest in touring the great houses provides detailed descriptions of the gardens, ground and number and arrangement of rooms as well as their portraits and furnishings. She Celia was fascinated by the innovations of her age and highly impressed by the new-fangled water closet that Queen Mary had installed at Hampton Court. Never marrying, Celia wrote out her notes in turning them into a travel memoir, which was never published as she intended them for family reading only. This is attached to the right rear of the saddle, passes under the belly of the horse, and fastens to the left front. It serves to stabilise the saddle and offset the extra weight from both legs being on the left side of the horse. The hunting field was a great place to meet a future husband; unmarried Victorian Through England on a Side-saddle wore a navy habit with a bowler hat, while married ladies wore a black habit with silk hat if they were a subscriber, or a black habit and black bowler for less significant meets or while visiting another pack. It is possible that this could this be the reason behind the traditional black habit seen in the hunt field and showing arena today. Victorian riders were quite often sewn into their habits in order to show off their figure to best advantage. Brown gloves should be worn with a bowler hat, well fitted and clean. Black Through England on a Side-saddle are a major faux pas because traditionally, black gloves signified that you were in mourning and therefore should not be riding! The 'leg o' mutton' sleeve circa And finally a note about the men. There are occasional examples of men riding side saddle other than for humorous, drag, or satirical purposes. What a pity more men cannot pluck up courage to ride aside nowadays! Further information. Email This BlogThis!

    Badlands National Park – North Unit Environmental Assessment U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service Badlands National Park, North Unit Pennington and Jackson Counties, South Dakota Black-Tailed Prairie Dog Management Plan Environmental Assessment August 2007 Badlands National Park – North Unit Environmental Assessment National Park Service Prairie Dog Management Plan U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service Black-Tailed Prairie Dog Management Plan Environmental Assessment Badlands National Park, North Unit Pennington and Jackson Counties, South Dakota Executive Summary The U.S. Department of Interior, National Park Service (NPS) proposes to implement a comprehensive black-tailed prairie dog management plan for the North Unit of Badlands National Park where prairie dog populations have increased from approximately 2,070 acres in 1979 to 6,363 acres in 2006, or 11% of the approximately 60,000 acres of available suitable habitat. The principal objectives of the management plan are to ensure that the black-tailed prairie dog is maintained in its role as a keystone species in the mixed-grass prairie ecosystem on the North Unit, while providing strategies to effectively manage instances of prairie dog encroachment onto adjacent private lands. The plan also seeks to manage the North Unit’s prairie dog populations to sustain numbers sufficient to survive unpredictable events that may cause high mortality, such as sylvatic plague, while at the same time allowing park managers to meet management goals for other North Unit resources. Primary considerations in developing the plan include conservation of the park’s natural processes and conditions, identification of effective tools for prairie dog management, implementing strategies to deal with prairie dog encroachment onto adjacent private lands, and protection of human health and safety.

    THROUGH ENGLAND ON A SIDE-SADDLE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Celia Fiennes | 96 pages | 02 Apr 2009 | Penguin Books Ltd | 9780141191072 | English | London, United Kingdom Sidesaddle - Wikipedia Ninth century depictions show a small footrest, or planchette added to the pillion. In Europe , the sidesaddle developed in part because of cultural norms which considered it unbecoming for a woman to straddle a horse while riding. This was initially conceived as a way to protect the hymen of aristocratic girls, and thus the appearance of their being virgins. However, women did ride horses and needed to be able to control their own horses, so there was a need for a saddle designed to allow control of the horse and modesty for the rider. The earliest functional "sidesaddle" was credited to Anne of Bohemia — The design made it difficult for a woman to both stay on and use the reins to control the horse, so the animal was usually led by another rider, sitting astride. The insecure design of the early sidesaddle also contributed to the popularity of the Palfrey , a smaller horse with smooth ambling gaits, as a suitable mount for women. A more practical design, developed in the 16th century, has been attributed to Catherine de' Medici. In her design, the rider sat facing forward, hooking her right leg around the pommel of the saddle with a horn added to the near side of the saddle to secure the rider's right knee. The footrest was replaced with a "slipper stirrup ", a leather-covered stirrup iron into which the rider's left foot was placed.

  • Equipment Directions for Trotting Races in Sweden
    EQUIPMENT DIRECTIONS FOR TROTTING RACES IN SWEDEN Valid from January 18, 2018 These directions are issued by The Swedish Trotting Association. Contact: Svensk Travsport 161 89 Stockholm, Sweden. Phone: +46 8 627 21 20 E-mail: [email protected] 2 Table of content Introduction 4 Bridles and cheek pieces 5 Bits 8 Overcheck and overcheck bits 11 The harness 13 Protective gear 13 Additional equipment 14 Racing under saddle 16 The racing bike 18 The racing authorities in the Nordic countries – Denmark, Finland, Nor- way and Sweden – have jointly listed the pieces of equipment permitted for use during trotting races in these four countries. Equipment of new design has to be approved by Animal Welfare Depart- ment of The Swedish Trotting Association. No exceptions will be granted. 3 Introduction The Swedish legislation on animal welfare is among the world’s strictest. Obviously, this has implications for the trotting industry – not least when it comes to the equipment used during racing and training. Since the arrival of 2018, trainers using equipment prohibited by the racing regulations will face increasingly harsh consequences – ranging from heavy fines to exclusion of individual horses from participation in a specific race. The ultimate responsibility for the equipment of a horse always rests on the trainer. In order to prevent the risk for incidents causing trouble and frustration among visiting trainers, we have produced this brief manual on equipment. Below, you will find general guidelines for the design and adjustment of equipment used during racing and training. The following sections offer brief descriptions of equipment details that are permitted.

    New England 4-H Horse Show Bit Rules and Guidelines Basic guide to local, county, and state/regional 4-H Horse shows as well as for those classes in open shows limited to 4-H membership entry. This rules manual is for organizers, officials, exhibitors, parents and judges. Revised February 2020 These guidelines should be used in conjunction with the current New England 4-H Horse Show Rulebook. See rulebook for additional details involving bits and equipment for respective classes. Because the New England 4-H Horse Program is diverse in both its divisions and in the breeds that compete, it is difficult to generate a complete list of acceptable bits. Bits that are permitted by respective breed associations may be acceptable at the judge's discretion. A judge at his/her discretion can penalize a horse with non-conventional types of bits. Please understand that this supplement gives only examples of legal and u acceptable bits. In no way does it try to include every bit that is allowed or not allowed. If exhibitors have questions concerning a bit they wish to use, and that specific bit is not mentioned in the current rules or these guidelines, then exhibitors should ask the show stewards and/or the judge if the bit is acceptable for that show. Exhibitors should have alternative bits available so that they can make a change if it is determined by show officials that their preferred bit is unacceptable for that show. Each county, district or regional, and state show is officiated by different stewards and judges.

Although horses can be worked without them or with substitutes, a bridle with one or two bits can add extra finesse. The bridle allows you to communicate and control your mount. For it to work properly, you need to select the bridle carefully according to the needs of you and your horse as well as the type of performance you expect. It must also be assembled correctly. Although there are many styles of bridles, the procedures for assembling and using them are similar. The three basic parts of a bridle All bridles have three basic parts: bit, reins and headstall (Figure 1). The bit is the primary means of communication. The reins allow you to manipulate the bit and also serve as a secondary means of communica- tion. The headstall holds the bit in place and may apply Figure 1.
