Field Shelters

Field Shelters

Field shelters are a brilliant addition to your equestrian facilities. 

Some of our customers have told us that they don’t know how they coped without one before as they take the stress of worrying about their horse being left out to the elements.  The obvious advantages are protection from the wind and rain in the winter and sun and flies in the summer.

Manufactured to the same high specification as our stables, field shelters can be very versatile.  They can be used as workshops, garages and hay stores and a popular choice is a field shelter with a built-in tack room. Our prices are based on the following specification but as each building is built to order you can tailor it to your own requirements. 

We know that from time to time buildings need to be re-located and therefore our buildings when constructed are screwed or coach bolted together (including kick boards) for ease of re-erection at a later date.

We have supplied field shelters to customers with cattle, sheep, goats, alpacas, pigs and even an ostrich…

The possibilities are endless!
