Martha's Yard, CK 1999/019887/23 is the home of Strasser Hoofcare in Gauteng.

The nailing of iron shoes to horses’ hooves is an established tradition.  The discovery that this practice is not in the interest of horses, in fact, that it can be detrimental to their hooves and health in general, was quite revolutionary and is to this day a controversial topic.  At present, however, the idea of barefoot horses is gaining in popularity worldwide, as excellent results have been achieved, particularly with the Strasser method of hoofcare.
