Barding
Barding (also spelled
bard or
barb) is
armour for
horses. During the late
Middle Ages as armour protection for
knights became more effective, their mounts became targets. This tactic was effective for the
Scots at the
Battle of Bannockburn in the 14th century when horses were killed by the infantry, and for the
English at the
Battle of Crécy in the same century where archers shot horses and
heavy infantry killed the
French knights after they were dismounted. Barding developed as a response to such events.

Barding
The defense for the horse, sometimes referring to the armour and sometimes referring to the cloth decoration that served to identify the owner. During the 14th century armour for the horse seems to have been usually restricted to the
chamfron for the head and the
crinet for the neck, but there are also references to
cuirboille armours. No armour from this period has survived, sadly. During the 15th century, as the knight himself adopted the full
white harness , the horse was also sometimes fully armoured. See especially the very fine example of a German
"gothic" harness in the
Wallace Collection, London .
