Long Mynd & District Bridleways Association

About Long Mynd & District Bridleways Association (LMDBA)

The Long Mynd & District Bridleways Association (LMDBA) covers some of the most beautiful riding country in Shropshire including moorland of The Long Mynd, the Stretton Hills, Wenlock Edge, the dramatic Stiperstones and the wild Kerry Ridgeway. The area is crossed by a network of hundreds of byways, bridleways and quiet country lanes.

The Association's main aims are to ensure that the bridleway network is maintained and improved, and to provide opportunities for local and visiting riders to enjoy the Shropshire countryside. LMDBA have an active committee, arrange escorted rides, organise clearance parties, hold popular quiz nights, arrange other ridden and non-ridden events and produce an attractive full colour newsletter for our members.

Since the Association was formed in 1996, the strength in their numbers, the relationships they have formed with land owners and tenants, their association with Shropshire Council in generating circular rides and assisting in bridleway maintenance, and their co-operation with The National Trust, Natural England and Shropshire Hills AONB have all done much to increase our influence.
