Today sees the start of Defender Bramham International.
For those people need the address it is: Bramham Park, Bramham Ln, Wetherby LS23 6ND
To access the event please follow the signage. Just a word of warning there are roadworks on route! From Thursday, there are roadworks to put in four miles of concrete central barrier between the M1 junction 47 (Parlington) and A1(M) junction 45 (Grange Moor). There will be reduced speed limit of 50mph. This will allow the A1(M) to keep four lanes open. Both the A1(M) northbound and M1 northbound approaches reduced to two lanes, prior to the two routes merging, and becoming four lanes.
Some Event specifics:

We’re pleased to share that Lycetts will once again be joining us at Bramham Horse Trials throughout the week. For the second year running, they will be generously sponsoring the Riders and Owners Drinks Party on Thursday evening and encourage all their EHOA friends to come along and enjoy the evening. Like last year they will be running a free prize draw competition, and this year’s prize is particularly special; a £1,000 donation to the winner’s chosen charity!
EHOA discount provider An Eventful Life are onsite filming the action – be sure to check it out.
