Hendervale Farm Under New Ownership of Iron Horse

Milton, ON – Iron Horse Equestrian Complex takes possession of the old Hendervale Farm with dreams of restoring and growing the property into an internationally known show facility. Hard work, dedication and

strategic planning will be key to their success – and the new owners are up for the challenge.

Iron Horse Equestrian Complex takes possession on November 1, 2009 of the old Hendervale Farm located at 5244 No.1 Side Road in Milton Ontario. The 115-acre property boasts multiple sand rings, a 24,000 sq. ft. arena, 240 outdoor stalls, 110 enclosed stalls and the largest Grand Prix ring in Eastern Canada.

Ken and Susy Niles, the owners of Iron Horse, are very familiar with the equine industry – Susy grew up riding and showing on the local circuit, and the couple has now moved their 100-horse schooling and show business onto the property. “I’m really excited about our new home,” says Ken. “This property has so much potential, but unfortunately it hasn’t received the attention that it has deserved over the past few years. My dream is to turn this into one of the best show facilities in Canada and we will host shows that will attract international calibre riders. There is a lot of work ahead of us – but we’re up for the challenge.”

Iron Horse Equestrian Complex will host Gold, Silver and Bronze level shows as well as act as a venue for a myriad of other special events. Plans to overhaul the facility are already in full swing with dollars being invested into new paddocks, footing, jumps, new rings, and improved boarding facilities. This will be sure to attract international-calibre riders to the grounds. This type of awareness will increase local tourism, resulting in a positive economic impact on the local community.
