Riding Establishments Act 1964-1970
Any person who keeps horses for the purpose of letting them out on hire for riding or
for them being used, in return for payment, for instruction in riding is required to hold a licence
issued by the Local Authority under the above Acts.
Licences in respect of six riding establishments situated within this Borough were in force;
two premises ceased being used as riding establishments during the year.
Prior to the issue of the licences veterinary reports on the horses at riding establishments
are received from the Veterinary Officer of the Corporation of London. Inspections, inquiries
and licences have had regard to the amendments and extensions of the Riding Establishments
Act 1964 which are contained in the Riding Establishments Act 1970 which came into operation
on January 1st, 1971.
