Horse Drawn Vehicles
All of the horse drawn vehicles which we offer can be used as a direct substitute for our motor hearses.  The list below shows the different combinations of two, four or six black or grey horses, and the pictures illustrate the different turnouts from the different companies we use.  Of course, if something else is required our representative will make the necessary checks to see whether or not it is available for hire.
 
XL Equestrian Horse Drawn Hearses

Exell Equestrian supply all of the Horse Drawn turnouts for A W Lymn The Family Funeral Service.  Based in Leicestershire they are a family run business, with a great history in carriage driving.

At 16, Boyd won the Australian pairs championship. Aged 21 he left Australia for Britain to improve his riding and especially his carriage driving talent - with remarkable success.

He was a Member of the Australian team at World Singles Championships in Ebbs 1998, was 2nd in the FEI Pairs Top Driver Award in 2001, and 2nd in the Four-in-hand Top Driver Award in 2003, 2007 & 2009.  He won the Four-in-Hand Top Driver Award in 2008 (which was shared with Ysbrand Chardon) and has been a six times British National Champion.

Boyd and his team are seen below winning in the final round of the 2012 Championships.
