Gavin Darby delivered his Hobby Horse to my house. It will will go in the Horseworld Sculpture Exhibition at Horseworld near Bristol from May 23rd to November 1st. Hobbyhorses were children's toys; they "rode" a stick with a horse's head, sometimes with wheels attached. Larger versions also featured in festivals as they still do at Minehead in Somerset every May.
