It was a thing of beauty seeing the police horses belt round the park but they stopped long before the cavalry moved out of Dulwich nick. No one died but I suspect the dreaded Health and Safety or some filthy insurance company put paid to that spectacle.


The riding stable nags are only allowed to stroll and then only when the kiddies have gone to bed.

I used to ride round dulwich park when the riding school had no indoor school, and also round the south circular road. Would,nt do that now as would be flattened...it,s such a shame there are not many horses using the park anymore but I would,nt ride my horse there now as there are too many bikers, runners, dogs,etc..
I ride at Dulwich Riding Stables. (Nags they are not.) Anyway, I asked today about this and they said that the reason they rarely go in the park is because people's dogs go for the horses and one horse in particular got bitten a great deal. So I am afraid it is down to people who can not / will not control their dogs. So now you know.
This is such a shame because horses and dogs do get on but if the dogs don't know or see horses very often dogs do tend to chase...I have my horses in Keston and ride out regularly with my dogs running behind with no problem..it's a perfect way to excerise dogs...but they do have to be trained to be around horses..

    • Hello.   Thanks Nigel and Hparker 😀   I've got new slots available for new students looking for a piano teacher or guitar teacher.   You could start in the new term beginning September, or I'm also available adhoc-styles through the summer holidays at times.   I teach all ages, in most styles, in lots of different ways according to how you learn/like to learn.   Give me a call or text on 07730 402336.   I have connections to lots of performance opportunities/networks too.   I run regular events /student concerts, and play in bands/perform.   Natalie. 
    • So do I, but I think they are in trouble as well.  Anyway, that space wouldn't be big enough.
    • I'm not talking about Starmer. I was responding to a post which  said that  Corbyn was unelectable. How people voted in the "more hotly contested election" is irrelevant. Corbyn wasn't leading the Labour Party then. Starmer was. And the turnout for Labour reflects that.
