MINEHEAD HOBBY HORSE SOMERSET MAY DAY

BARBADOS HOBBY HORSE WEST INDIES .<br />
The music that the attendants play and the way the Hobby Horse prances about is very similar to both the Padstow Hobby Horse, Cornwall, England, the Minehead Hobby Horse and the Dunster Hobby Horse Somerset UK.  Attendants playing drums accompany both Minehead and the Dunster Horse. This Hobby Horse looks much more like the Minehead Horse and Dunster Horse and perhaps was brought to the West Indies by sailors from Great Britain. 1970s
