Cherhill White Horse

This horse was only created in the 18th century based on the Bronze Age horses of the area. We were lucky at our visit there and saw a local cleaning the site.

Dieses Pferd wurde erst im 18. Jahrhundert an Anlehnung der bronzezeitlichen Pferde der Gegend geschaffen. Wir hatten Glück beim Besuch dort und konnten einem Einheimischen bei der Pflege zusehen.
