Pony on Treaga Hill, Portreath

Whether it's a Shetland pony as all the notices say, or not, has been discussed at length on Panoramio. I still don't know!. I can't get local people to confirm either. People say it is too big to be a Shetland. I should put this question on Rene's new group! Perhaps I will!

Could it be a Dartmoor Pony Andy?

Andy Rodker ^club has replied to Nick Weall ^club

I have some photos of Dartmoor ponies and they are very different, Nick.
I really would like to know the answer. I suspect they really are Shetland ponies , ... just grown fat on better southern grass and weather!!!

Very beautiful. Nice and peaceful place (and it even looks safe, at least where the pony is grazing :) ).

Doug Shepherd ^club

Great shot Andy, nice pony and a great background. After several seconds of research I have come to the conclusion that it is a Shetland Pony who took a liking to Cornwall and ate all the pasties;-))

Best wishes, Doug

Doug, five years of uncertainty and I will grab at straws, So, yes. It is; as all the signs say, a Shetland pony.
I forget who the naysayers were on Pano, some are here on ipernity. But I will call them Shetland ponies from now on!. Enough is enough!
