Farriery Competition at the Romsey Show
​​​​​​​14 September 2019


Former Household Cavalryman Stephen Cox-Rusbridge organised a Farriery Competition at the Romsey Show on 14th September.

The forge uses vintage fires and is set up to represent a 1st World War Field Forge, a great attraction for the public visiting the show.

Judge Will Hampson made the trophy for the Open Class by fabricating a pair of pincers from two old rasps, a fine example of skilled metal work.
