Birtle Riding Centre occupies a commanding hillside position above Bury and is one of Greater Manchester's principal competition venues. The centre has a 41×21 metre indoor school with a 100-seat spectator gallery, an unusual facility for a regional yard, and a 62-metre floodlit outdoor arena that is used year-round. The venue hosts affiliated and unaffiliated showing, dressage and jumping competitions throughout the year, drawing entries from across the North West. As well as competition hosting, the centre runs a full tuition programme with BHS approval for riders of all levels.

What to wear
Standard guidance for equestrian yards in the UK. Check with your yard if you're unsure.
A correctly fitted hat to current safety standards (PAS 015 or VG1). Bicycle helmets are not permitted. Hats are available to hire, usually reserved for first-time riders.
Boots with a small heel, riding boots, walking boots or wellies all work. Trainers and flat-soled shoes are not permitted for safety reasons.
Close-fitting, weather-appropriate clothes. Shoulders and legs must be covered, no vest tops or shorts. Jackets and coats should be fastened securely. Waterproofs are recommended for outdoor lessons.
Long hair should be tied back in a ponytail before putting on your helmet. All jewellery must be removed before riding.
Clients arriving in unsuitable clothing or footwear may not be permitted to ride, for their own safety. If in doubt, contact the yard before your visit.
