  • From a high viewpoint on Snow Hill, we see the green  'Long Walk' in the Royal Estate's Windsor Great Park. We look down the 3-mile straight road into the distance towards Windsor Castle in the summer shinshine during the equestrian 3-Day Event held annually on Her Majesty the Queens's property. Half-way down the lush avenue of Elm trees there are some horses and their riders either warming up before competition, or galloping across the landscape on a round against the clock. A few spectators have stopped to watch this part of the course but others are elsewhere at the dramatic water jumps. The Long Walk was commenced by Charles II from 1680-1685 by planting a double avenue of elm trees. The central carriage road was added by Queen Anne in 1710. Windsor Castle was begun in the 11th century by William the Conqueror as it afforded a good defensive point over the River Thames. A vast area of Windsor Forest to the south of the castle became reserved by the King for personal hunting and also to supply the castle with wood, deer, boar and fish. Windsor Great Park (locally referred to simply as the Great Park) is a large deer park and Crown Estate of 5,000 acres, to the south of the town of Windsor on the border of Berkshire and Surrey in England. The park was, for many centuries, the private hunting ground of Windsor Castle and dates primarily from the mid-13th century. Now largely open to the public, the parkland is a popular recreation area for residents of the western London suburbs.

  • In Windsor Great Park's Long Walk across the landscape a hose gallops during a 3-day cross-country event, held annually on Her Majesty the Queens's property, on 16th June 1994, in London, England. The Long Walk was commenced by Charles II from 1680-1685 by planting a double avenue of elm trees. The park was, for many centuries, the private hunting ground of Windsor Castle and dates primarily from the mid-13th century.

The Copper Horse is a statue marking the end of the Long Walk at Snow Hill in Windsor Great Park in the English county of Berkshire. The walk begins at the George IV Gateway at Windsor Castle. The Copper Horse is a statue of George III on horseback, and is said to represent George as an emperor in the Roman tradition riding without stirrups, along the lines of the Equestrian Statue of Marcus Aurelius.

  • Crowds gather at some water during the annual Carriagedriving trials at the Windsor Great Park Equestrian Club. As one spectator lies across the grass, reading a national newspaper, a competitor negotiates a water feature on the Windsor course. Carriage driving is a form of competitive horse driving in harness in which larger two or four wheeled carriages (often restored antiques) are pulled by a single horse, a pair, tandem or a four-in-hand team. The Windsor Park Equestrian Club is situated among the 5,000 acres of the Windsor Great Park which in turn is part of the 14,000 acre Windsor Estate spanning two counties, Surrey and Berkshire.

  • A spectator at the Royal Windsor horse trials, sita on the grass with her pet whippet dog, between competitors as they gallop across country in this west London space near Windsor Castle. The dog stretches out with tail wagging, its owners sat with an open competition listing. Alongside, an elderly lady rests on a shooting seat. Whippets in the UK are a medium-size dog averaging in weight from 15 to 30 lb (6.8-14 kg), with height (under the FCI standard) of 18.5 - 20 inches (47 - 51 cm) for males and 17.5-18.5 inches (44-47 cm) for females. Whippets are generally quiet and gentle dogs, and may be content to spend much of the day resting. After a chance to run about and let off steam, they are happy to become couch-potatoes. They are loyal and friendly. Because of this, whippets are known to have been used in aged care facilities.

  • A young girl sits on her pony, waiting for the beginning of her race at a local gymkhana, on 17th September 1999, in Cheltenham, England. Wearing a smart herringbone patterned jacket, regulation jodhpurs and holding a crop to encourage the horse to perform a series of trick and races, she sits calmly awaiting the next event. The word gymkhana is an Indian Raj term that referred to a place where sporting events took place to test the skill of the competitors. In the UK and east coast of the US, the term gymkhana now almost always refers to an equestrian event for riders on horses, often with the emphasis on children's participation (such as those organised here by the Pony Club). Gymkhana classes include timed speed events such as barrel racing, keyhole, keg race (also known as "down and back"), flag race, and pole bending.

  • Five elderly women on-lookers are lined against a wall outside the famous Ascot race course on Ladies' Day, the annual event on the English sporting and social calendar in June. Each are standing in order of size, from tallest (who holds a Tesco supermarket bag) to smallest and watch as two posh couples arrive for the day's racing dressed in showy dresses for the ladies and the men in formal top hat and tails. The posh lady in the front is in yellow and holds on to her straw hat on this windy summer day. Each wears their red Ascot badges allowing them entry to this exclusive royal event attended by the Royal Family and the hoi polloi of English society. We see the two sides of the class system but it is a humerous scene. There is good nature between the two groups with smiles exchanged with one couple but discomfort from those behind.
