My son Eddie and I operate our horseshoeing business from our forge in Newbridge, Co Kildare. We shoe and trim a lot of different types and breeds of horse; however 90% of our work is within the thoroughbred industry.

Through working with the thoroughbred breeding industry, we encounter a large amount of horses which require corrective shoeing and trimming. My forge is situated near to the stud farms and this enables me to make corrective or therapeutic shoes whenever needed.
