===Continuing horse-drawn cab services=== Horse-drawn hackney services continue to operate in parts of the UK, for example in [[Cockington]], [[Torquay]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.cockingtoncourt.org/latest-news/2014/9/9/cockington-carriages-plan-for-the-future-a468|title=Cockington Carriages plan for the future β Cockington Court|website=www.cockingtoncourt.org|access-date=7 April 2021|archive-date=24 October 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211024190712/https://www.cockingtoncourt.org/latest-news/2014/9/9/cockington-carriages-plan-for-the-future-a468|url-status=dead}}</ref> The town of [[Windsor, Berkshire]], is the last remaining UK town with a continuous lineage of horse-drawn hackney carriages, operated run by Windsor Carriages, the licence having been passed down from driver to driver since the 1830's. The original hackney licence is in place, allowing for passenger travel under the same law that was originally passed in 1662. The city of [[Bath, Somerset|Bath]] has an occasional horse-drawn Hackney, principally for tourists, but still carrying hackney plates.
