Lauder Common Riding 2009
August 12th, 2009
Lauder Common Riding took place a couple of weeks ago, on the first Saturday in August as usual. I managed to catch this fine phalanx of ex-cornets as they returned to the Royal Burgh after their annual trot, canter and gallop around the extremities of Lauder’s common land.
As can be seen from the image below, all ages and sizes take part in the annual ride - and it’s no small feat for the youngest riders to take in their stride!
