Description

In March 1965, a derelict piece of land was bought by John and Anne Kirkham at auction. Their dream with their young family was to begin ‘living the good life’. Aspirations of being a farmer, the care of a variety of animals and growing variety of crops were on the agenda. This with the help of friends and family happened quite quickly and the animals came in two by two. The first equine interest came with the Blackpool donkeys that were wintered out and great fun was had by all the local children learning all about donkey care. Slowly as people found out there was grazing land the liveries arrived. The riding school was started by Alison in partnership with the Kirkham’s in 1969. In 1972 Longacres was approved by the British Horse Society (BHS) and grew from strength to strength developing and inspiring young riders. This was shortly followed by the approval of the Association of British Riding Schools (ABRS) Longacres would not be what it is today without the driving force and support from all former staff, students and clients. Current staff and student team continues the desire to keep Longacres as one of the best local Riding Schools in the North West of England.
