Horse Riding
A Memory of Selsey.
As well as Tony Lee’s riding stables behind the Crown there was another one run by Mrs Dudeen which you found by riding down the side of the cinema and the stables were at the back. I used to help by mucking out and grooming and getting the horse I used to look after ready for customers to ride - his name was Peter Buttercup. In exchange for this I was able to have an occasional ride and the highlight was going on a two hour ride at low tide from the end of West Street all the way to Bracklesham Bay. This was in the fifties. In the photo of the riders going past the Blacksmith’s in West Street I can recognise the horses as belonging to Mrs Dudeen as are these ones in the photo. They are going back to the stables down by the side of the cinema.
