Another Badminton contender we’re proud to have worked with - Austin O’Connor.

Currently ranked #15 in the world and the highest ranked Irish rider, Austin’s setup at his Oxfordshire base has been built to support the demands of top-level competition.

Over the past three years, our team has delivered a lunge ring, storage barn, and a full fencing package - combining post and rail with HotCote electric fencing.

“From the outset, everything was extremely professional… no stone left unturned. We’re genuinely delighted - it’s made our day-to-day running so much easier.”

A brilliant project to be part of, and we’ll be following Austin and Sixmilewater's Badminton campaign closely.

Best of luck this week!

It’s Badminton week!

Georgie Goss heads into her 11th Badminton, and her third with her Dutch-bred mare, Feloupe.

We worked with Georgie to extend her arena to create a more usable, effective space for day-to-day training - something that really matters when you’re preparing at this level.

It was a pleasure working with Georgie on this project, and we’ll be cheering her on at Badminton. Best of luck, Georgie!

Thinking about building an outdoor arena but not sure where to start?

Getting it right from day one makes all the difference - for performance, drainage, and long-term durability.

In our latest guide, we break down the key stages, including:

• Choosing the right location
• Groundworks and drainage
• Selecting the right surface
• Fencing and finishing touches

It’s a practical, no-nonsense overview designed to help you avoid costly mistakes.

This large-scale stock fencing project delivered a practical, durable solution tailored to the needs of a working estate, with careful planning and precise installation throughout.

“Tomley Projects recently completed a large fencing project. The team were very professional from the initial consultation through to the end of the project. Their tender was competitive, and I felt that I was getting value for money. Tom was always on hand to answer questions and to offer other options.”

A result that not only enhances the land but supports its long-term management and use.

Whether you’re starting from scratch or upgrading an existing space, this is essential reading before you begin.

Outgrown Your Arena? It happens more often than you think. We often have clients coming to us with the same challenges:

- The 20x40 arena that once worked perfectly for ponies now feels restrictive with horses in full stride.
- Dressage ambitions have progressed to the point where a full 60m arena is needed, providing the space required to refine movements.
- Jumping courses are becoming bigger and more technical, requiring additional room to achieve correct distances with consistency.
- Increased space needed to allow for both show jumps and dressage boards to remain in place, ensuring training can continue without constant adjustments.

As your riding progresses, facilities should too, but you don’t always need to start again. Increasing the arena size can completely transform how it rides - and how it feels - at a fraction of the cost of a full rebuild.

As the ground begins to dry, the end of March is when serious projects begin to move.

If you’re planning a new arena, stabling or barns, a refurbishment, yard infrastructure, fencing improvements, or any of the other equestrian facilities, now is the time to finalise design and scheduling.

We are currently booking summer projects, so if this is on your agenda this year, please do get in touch.

Cheltenham week is a celebration of excellence in the sport, and we’re proud to play our part in supporting the infrastructure behind it.

From private facilities to projects with some of the most respected names in British racing - including O’Neill Racing, Richard Hannon, Richard Hughes, Clive Cox, Jamie Snowden and Jockey Club Estates - our approach never changes.

We’re proud to have delivered specialist construction works for The Jockey Club.

Will Riggall, Head of Operations at Jockey Club Estates, shares insight into the project and the importance of working with contractors who understand the standards, heritage and operational requirements of such a prestigious organisation.

Collaborating with institutions of this calibre reflects the level of care, expertise and professionalism we bring to every project — whether we’re supporting major organisations, historic estates or private clients.

At Tomley Projects, our focus is always the same: delivering high-quality work, building trusted relationships, and ensuring every project is completed to the highest possible standard.

Do You Need Planning Permission for an Arena?

Spring often brings new project enquiries, and one of the first questions we’re asked: “Do we need planning permission?”. The answer is usually yes, but we would advise speaking with a planning consultant to provide clarity on the best way to proceed.

We regularly liaise with planning consultants and local authorities to streamline the process, and can support with drawings and technical information as required.

Build properly. Build compliantly. Build once.
