Shanks Pony with a Royal twist

[hdtrust]

Shanks mowers were made in Arbroath Scotland and are known to have been making lawn mowers since 1842.Their first Patent Horse mower was called a 5 Drummer. Although there has been many manufacturers of Horse and Pony mowers, Shanks are of the best design and for that easier to use.
The Shanks Pony mower shown is from the 1890’s,lovingly restored by Michael, having to have new axles throughout owing to much ware.

For many years we have shown working displays using the pony mower, along with our great friend Anthony Parkes, Past Head of Livery at Buckingham Palace, and of course Justice equally owned by Her Majesty the Queen and Anthony.

We’ve done working displays within the Royal Parks in London as well as at The Three Counties Autumn Show at Malvern
