Horse mounting block, Werrington
Horse mounting block, Werrington
A pair of horse mounting blocks are situated on either side of the subway underneath the A15 Werrington Parkway leading to Hurn Road. Riders are requested to dismount whilst passing through the subway, presumably to avoid the possibility of any accidents involving pedestrians or cyclists passing in the opposite direction.
Every time I walk past this mounting block, I experience an overwhelming urge to stand on the top step in the hope that an official in a blue blazer will arrive to hang a gold medal around my neck and a band will strike up the national anthem!
