AN IMPRESSIVE AND HISTORIC TRAINING YARD WITH EXTENSIVE ACCOMMODATION, STABLES AND OUTBUILDING EXTENDING TO 1.16 ACRES IN ALL THE HISTORY Harraton Court Stables has a notable history, it was built during the 1880’s by John George Lambton, the third Earl of Durham, a major figure in the history of horse racing.

The Cicero Barn is the earliest part of the property, which may have been built as early as 1811, originally known as Church Barn, it was renamed after the Derby winner of 1905.

The main quadrangle was completed by the Earl in 1883. From 1895 Percy Peck trained from Harraton Court producing 12 classic winners including Cicero in 1905.

In more recent history Harraton Court Stables has been a base for Barney Curley and Hugh Collingridge among others, the latter winning the Queen Elizabeth II stakes and the Royal Hunt Cup.

More recently Darryll Holland has trained from Harraton Court Stables.

‘The Crown’ a lavish historical drama chronicling the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, used Harraton Court Stables as a location to film a scene in their third season series.

Racing in England has always been associated with the royal family, so it was wonderful that the racing yard was used to demonstrate the importance of the royal family in British culture.
