Anthony Loriston-Clarke Obituary, Obituary Press And Death Cause

Anthony Loriston-Clarke Obituary, Death – Anthony Loriston-Clarke, a key Catherston Stud member, died on July 11 at 87. After Stowe and Millfield, he joined the Royal Navy and graduated from Trinity College Cambridge in mechanical sciences. He worked on Concorde and hovercraft materials for Bristol Aircraft and Hovercraft Development.

He lectured in maritime engineering and metals at Southampton University for years on a fellowship. Child Anthony learned to ride and was proud to pass his Pony Club B test. He played rugby, athletics, and sailed and captained Millfield shooting as a kid. Anthony requested Jennie Bullen to dance at her belated 21st birthday party in August 1964. They fell in love. Over 58 years ago, they were engaged in October and married in February 1965.

After Jennie’s father Lt Col Bullen died, Catherston Stud moved to Black Knoll House, Brockenhurst. Anthony built stables, an indoor arena, a foaling facility, and more stable blocks using the existing amenities to start married life. Anne and Lizzie, their daughters, are equestrian.

Anthony constructed their first horsebox, Bird’s Eye, which held six horses, slept six people, and was short enough to take on a ferry abroad. Through trial and error, Anthony created the first artificial vagina for collecting semen from stallions using varying drainpipe sizes.
