Brief history:

The Stud was founded by Sir Edward Hulton in 1921 and acquired in 1925 by the Fairhaven family. During the second World War the Stud was leased to the Aga Khan, who stood a number of stallions. Other stallions to stand at Barton include NIGHT SHIFT (USA) and MOST WELCOME. BARTON STUD welcomes seasonal and permanent boarders and is happy to accommodate mares walking-in to stallions based in the Newmarket and Thetford regions. The Stud also takes mares, foals and yearlings for sales preparation.

Tom took over as Stud Manager in 2013 and has grown the business into one of the leading studs in the UK and one of the largest in consignments in Europe and launching the stallion division on 2025.
