What is "fell pony"

The Fell pony is a versatile, working breed of mountain and moorland pony originating in the north of England in Cumberland and Westmorland ( Cumbria) and Northumberland. It was originally bred on the fell farms of northwest England, and is used as a riding and driving pony. The breed is closely related to its geographic neighbour, the Dales pony, but is a little smaller and more ponylike in build. The Fell pony is noted for hardiness, agility, strength and sure-footedness.
