	More About the Fell Pony
		In a sense the Dales is an offshoot from the original combined “galloway” breed originally found throughout the north, whereas the Fell pony remained true in type primarily to the west of the Pennines.
		Most of the ponies were fl, dark brown or bay, white markings were very rare, and as the size of the pony was governed by the quality of grazing, it is unlikely that ponies exceeding 13hh could have survived on the northern moorland.
		Fortunately the Fell Pony was still surviving in it's native Lakeland home, and despite it's dramatic rise and fall at the hands of the industrialists, as a breed it was quite unchanged, for the disbanding of pony teams had not affected the true pony breeding stock at home on the Cumbrian hills.
