About Us

About Riding Arena Kent/Foord Equestrian Services

At Riding Arena Kent, horses are at the heart of what we do. We are a family-run company with deep roots in Kent’s rural community. Running our own working farm keeps us closely connected to the land, and our clients appreciate that experience and authenticity. We care deeply about quality, safety and reliability.

 

Our Story

Founded by equestrian enthusiasts, Riding Arena Kent was created to fill a gap between traditional builders and equestrian specialists. We combine civil engineering know-how with real riding experience, creating arenas and facilities that perform beautifully and stand the test of time.

With over 60 completed arenas and a reputation for handling complex dig-outs and levelling projects, Riding Arena Kent has become one of the South East’s most trusted names in equestrian construction.

 

What We Do

  • Arena design, construction and refurbishment
  • Equestrian fencing and shelters
  • Paddock and land maintenance
  • Agricultural contracting and consultancy

 We handle projects of all sizes, from private schools to large commercial yards.

 

Our Values

  • Quality: We never cut corners.
  • Reliability: Built for the British climate.
  • Communication: Clear, honest updates throughout.
  • Local: Proudly serving Kent and the South East.

 

Why Our Clients Trust Us

Most of our work comes through word of mouth. Our clients, riders, trainers and yard owners appreciate our professionalism, flexibility and commitment to their horses’ well-being.

 We are a fully NFU-insured contractor, meaning all our work, materials and machinery are covered during construction for complete client peace of mind.
