HAPPA have officially opened their museum in memory of Mrs Pam Wood and tells the story of Founder Mona Huskie, who fought tirelessly to prevent the illegal export of horses from the UK to the continent for slaughter.br br The timeline takes you back to 1937 and walks through the decades, explaining the economic climate at the time and the problems faced as a consequence. br br The twentieth century saw the gradual decline of horsepower, with horse traffic banned on many streets in London, with the motor vehicle replacing horsepower, especially following the Second World war.br br Horses were phased out as businesses gradually mechanised their transport fleets.br br Horses were sold to make way for motor-vans, 4,000 railway horses were sold ending their days in a slaughter’s yard, selling to the highest bidder, encouraging, and fuelling a black-market trade in horsemeat.
