Welcome to Fletchers Farm Riding School & Livery Yard, Fordham, owned by Emily and Tom Bradshaw since 2017. 
The Riding School and livery yard at Fletchers Farm has been established since 2004. The Riding School is registered with the BHS, BHS Changing Lives Through Horses, Pony Club and ABRS and is currently rated 5 stars by the local authority.  
 
We offer lessons for riders aged 5 years old and upwards in our indoor arena as well as outdoor maneges, and have horses and ponies that are suitable for complete beginners to participate in our full range of lessons, holiday and weekend clubs/ activities (some activites are for chiildren aged 4 years and upwards). For the more experienced and competitive riders we can offer advanced training sessions, shows and clinics. We also offer lessons on your own horse 
 
Fletchers Farm Riding School has 15 horses and ponies ranging from 12.1hh to 15.2hh and a very experienced team to offer top quality instruction and care in a relaxed and friendly environment. We currently operate with a weight limit of 12 stone.  
 
Fletchers Farm Riding School has access to extensive hacking in the beautiful Essex countryside with 7km of off road hacking around the farm which joins on to the East Anglian Farm rides.
