[QUOTE="Dry Rot, post: 5147512, member: 4505"] Yes, a fine line. Traditionally, Shetlands, Highlands, and Clydesdale have been considered to be "livestock" (which in this context means agricultural livestock) in Scotland. There are even grants for providing stabling for them under crofting law! I believe the test is whether feed has to be bought in, plus the "amenity" test which you mention. Amenity = trekking, riding schools, showing, racing, etc. Whether the horses kept by the OP could be considered to be "improving the land" (stop laughing, you lot!:)) would be an interesting topic for an agricultural lawyer and how far the RPA would want to fight it!
