The Horse Chronicles
30 years young in 2009!
These are the adventures of the Bristol Morris Horse, as he
boldly goes where no Horse has gone before ....
The Bristol Morris Men's Horse's Solo Jig, "Jockey to the Fair",
truly one of the great wonders of the World of Dance. Horse dancing
in Shropshire circa 1980.
Music by Melodeon Maestro Nigel (fingers) Cooke
In 1996
Horse was in a sorry state and badly needed repairs. You can follow the details of this,
and see how he was constructed by Adrian, here.
However please note that you will need to view with Firefox, Safari, Opera, Camino or Flock! It still looks aweful in IE,
in particular the pop-up captions don't appear, you just get a title, and the frame is out of the (horse) box.
Site Dedicated to Bristol Morris Horse's Creator - Adrian Shaw.
