Those re-bars could be lethal - they have killed people who fell on them in the past.

Also from the photo they are all rusty so if you get a puncture would from them it will not be very nice and could be difficult to heal.

Best use for them - get one of those concrete/rock grinding machines - put them through it and you may have a nice base for a track system. I said may though

it reminds me of when my landowner had a party in the field i used to rent. He decided to burn his sofa on the bonfire and when i got there in the morning the field was strewn with bottles, a pitchfork and the springs (rusty) of the sofa  Twisted Evil
The fire site was covered in old nails  Shocked and it took me 3 hrs to remove the nails and stuff. then I had to find all the sofa springs which were hoof sized  Sad

so i thought i had found all of them... until... i found one wrapped around my horse's pastern a few days later.. of course the rusty thing had scored deeply into his leg and it was infected almost immediately!!!

Angry is NOT the word!
Evil or Very Mad

Well this is moving weekend and I'm a mixture of sad that I am leaving my friends and horse-friends at the yard, scared that the new yard won't work out, trying to work out the logistics of the actual move....

But looking forward to a new chapter. I was getting very despondent at the current yard, and have not even ridden my horse for any time for a number of weeks - just going up and doing them and going away. Not fair on them if I emotionally disengage from them because I'm unhappy in my surroundings.

Look on the bright side - if those pictures are anything to go by, the new yard will have to try very hard to be worse than where you are

Here's a funny thing.

We can get the use of the schol next door belonging to a rather nice retired lady. Rather jolly lady, but I couldn't help notice that she looked a little bit glazed at 11 in the morning.

She is quite delightful, keeps donkeys and cats, not in the same field of course, quite loaded, and gets through the day on several bottles of pink champagne, and apparently..it's not the cheap stuff!

A friend told me that after she had helped her sort out the paddocks for the donkeys last Christmas she was invited in for a drink. Two bottles of pink later, she called her husband to drive her home...

No way is that acceptable Evil or Very Mad . I wouldn't dare let my horse in that field she'd come back in ripped to pieces.
It's a good job you are moving. Hope it goes well for you.
