Originally set up in 1923, Seadown started o in a single room of Mr J Ripley’s house in Dibden Purlieu. A er his retirement in 1946 it was purchased by two young veterinary surgeons, who quickly expanded the practice. In 1962 a new branch was opened in Totton, followed 2 years later with a further branch in Lymington. In 1974 Seadown Boarding Kennels and bungalow, point to point races and breeder council meetings and AGM’s. Laura Trigg, BVSc Cert AVP(EP) MRCVS, Senior Equine Vet and Seadown Clinical Director comments: “It means the world to us all at Seadown, to be celebrating such an amazing 100 year milestone. We are incredibly grateful to all the staff, patients and clients who have continually supported the practice throughout the years. It really is a huge honour to serve the New Forest people and animal communities, and to be a part of many fascinating historical traditions and age-old forest ways. Family is deeply rooted in our Seadown ethos, in every sense of the word – we have several family members who work together within the Seadown veterinary and nursing teams and we have some clients who have continued to use our services through several different generations. In addition, perhaps not surprisingly, some of our vets and nurses were children when they first encountered the practice, these ‘children’ then became adults, trained with us, and now work here! It all means Seadown is a particularly special veterinary practice with a precious and unique heritage. It’s something we all strive to maintain and something to be cherished. Not just now but for the next 100 years too.” For more information about Seadown please visit: seadownvets.co.uk Rolling back the years - Retired Seadown vet and Director, Bob Bentley and RVN, Kathryn Field prepping a baby llama for surgery on Frost Lane in Hythe, were acquired to build a larger premises and a hospital. e new building, provided space for much improved facilities and for resident nursing sta , it was quickly granted Veterinary Hospital status.
