About Us

With good reason the Bennington Carriage is considered by many to be the finest carriage built today. One look at the deep, rich paint finish and inherent quality of engineering illustrates the difference.

One of the unique features of the Bennington is the method of build which enables you to order a carriage with totally personalised features. Suprisingly though, the Bennington Carriage is very affordable and, even custom-built made to measure carriages - are built and delivered within a relatively short timescale.

For leisure the Bennington Carriage has no rival. From traditional carriages, including dog carts, phaeton and wagonettes to the Bennington XL - a high performance carriage for the experienced carriage driver that is set to become a design icon. For pony or horse Bennington has the ideal carriage combining traditional elegance with sheer practical design and safety at a highly affordable price.

Though fashioned on traditional carriage styles, the Bennington Carriage hides many innovative design features. In fact, the Bennington carriage was the first carriage to incorporate aluminium wheel design, for added strength and reduced weight, the first to introduce the backstep buggy, and more recently, the engineering of parabolic springs to enhance stability and ride.

Probably the reality that 95% of carriage components are manufactured from raw material by the Bennington's craftsmen, within their Lincolnshire works, is the essential ingredient in the worldwide success of the Bennington Carriage. Wheels, chassis, suspension, body, seating and shafts - each element is skillfully engineered, hand-built, to create a carriage to perfectly match your expectations.
