Dartmoor(UK)

The Dartmoor Pony was used in medieval times for carrying heavy loads of tin from the mines across the moor When the mines closed, some ponies were kept for farming, but most were turned out onto the moor. Ponies were bred at Dartmoor Prison from the early 1900s until the 1960s, and used by guards for escorting prisoners.
