Tour Scotland Winter Video Clydesdale Horses North Fife

Tour Scotland Winter video of Clydesdale Horses in North Fife near St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. The Clydesdale is a breed of draught horse derived from the farm horses of Clydesdale, Scotland, and named after that region. The breed was developed from Flemish stallions imported to Scotland and crossed with local mares. The first recorded use of the name " Clydesdale " for the breed was in 1826, and by 1830 a system of hiring stallions had begun that resulted in the spread of Clydesdale horses throughout Scotland and into northern England. I really enjoy seeing these fine animals.
