Beaulieu Road sales yard utilities installation

Total project costs £134,375
Fund grant £29,400 (22% of total)

Sales of New Forest pones have taken place on the site of the existing Beaulieu Road Sales Yard for over sixty years and the yard is used by nearly all the commoners in the New Forest to sell their ponies by auction.  

Although much improved in recent years, the sales yard still offers only very basic facilities for buyers, sellers and also for the stock.  

The sales yard plays an essential role in the future sustainability of commoning in the New Forest and in order to comply with current and future animal welfare legislation and trading standards it is necessary to install mains water and electricity to the site.
