About this yard

Abram Hall Riding Centre is based at Abram Hall Farm in the village of Abram near Wigan and has been running equestrian shows since 1989, establishing itself as a respected competition venue in the North West. Noted as BHS Approved, the centre offers riding lessons, livery, and access to excellent competition facilities across dressage, show jumping, working hunter, and summer and winter championship events. The two all-weather arenas, a 40×50m and a 60×30m, are available for hire at competitive rates year-round. A working hunter course, ample hardstanding parking, toilet facilities, and horsebox storage make it practical for competitors. Junior working hunter and show jumping categories for riders under 17 are a regular fixture of the show calendar, and the yard's rural Abram setting offers countryside hacking alongside the competition facilities.
