Battle and District Riding Club

BDRC in Action

We are actively looking for different venues to complement those we already use by kind permission of their owners. We’re aware that we have a wide geographic area and that sometimes it is difficult for members to get to the venues that we use regularly. If you know of any near you that have good surfaces, easy access and parking for lorries and trailers, indoor or outdoor facilities we’d like to hear from you.

Practice sessions are held for each discipline at our regular venues which are chosen for ease of access and friendly low-key atmospheres. For cross country and show jumping practice sessions contact Di Blackman so she can understand what height you want to do and can then choose the right venue to suit your need.

REGULAR VENUES WE USE AND HOW TO GET TO THEM:

Glovers Farm: Directions/parking: from the A269 Ninfield Road, turn up Glovers Lane which is opposite a parade of shops. Follow along through quite a built up area to the end. Go across the bridge and drive straight through the yard to car park. Easy parking, plenty of space and easy turning

Church Farm: Directions/parking; Church Farm, Church Road Catsfield. From centre of Catsfield turn up road opposite post office and White Hart pub. Follow road along past village hall and church, passing Potmans Lane on the right. Shortly along on the left is drive for Church Farm. A row of terraced houses runs parallel with drive. Easy parking in yard and good turning space.

St Francis Farm: Directions /parking - very easy 1/2 mile from the main Bexhill road (A 271/A269), turning left at Lunsford Cross. Heaps of turning space.

Wilton House: Directions /parking – Catsfield. Very easy parking and turning.

Mountfield: Directions /parking – Just outside Battle off the A2100. Easy parking.

We are happy to look at other venues of course and welcome any ideas you may have or if any of you have facilities indoor or outdoor.
