Beast Herding Performance

24th May 2026

Live walk-abouts of the hooden horses

Throughout the day, enjoy the sight of the iconic Kentish Hooden Horse as a lively walk‑about herd roams the site.

Hoodening is a unique rural folk tradition found only in Kent, England, and brings a playful touch of local heritage to the event.

The event is part of Canterbury Unlocked, a city-wide celebration.
