It was believed at one time that the Suffolk Punch Horse descended from the medieval "Great Horse" brought to England by William the Conqueror. They were originally developed for farm work, particularly in Norfolk and Suffolk in the East of England. Farmers specifically bred them for farming life due to their stamina and willingness to work, so not many were available for sale in the early days. They were also very often used in pulling contests. 11 x 2.5 x 7.5 cm
