Bennington Carriages As a family of carriage drivers ourselves, we are passionate about our products and are continually

The team at Bennington shares a common goal – to use their exceptional skill and expertise to produce and support the very finest carriages. Many of the team have worked with us for over 20 years and have been instrumental in Bennington’s success. Central to this success is the acknowledgement that a Bennington Carriage is the product of a team effort where everyone strives for perfection in every detail. The precision of each weld, the perfection in each stitch and the flawless paint finish demonstrate the unmistakable quality that is unique to a Bennington Carriage. This level of perfection can only be achieved by the effort, dedication and skill of the Bennington Team who, in our humble opinion, are the finest team of carriage builders working today.

A little Bennington history for your Thursday.
While sorting through old photographs and event programmes, we found our advert from the Bentley Driving Club’s July 1985 two‑day event. Hard to believe it was 41 years ago.
Alongside it, we’ve included the marathon route map, two obstacle drawings and cones course map. Wonderful pieces of Bennington and carriage driving history.
