I'm gradually clearing out the old workshop and moving across to the

something made just as a large shoe ?

Shires get pretty big feet wise.

Though it might be a Smith's special for decoration.

One of our two riding horses (they are fairly big as riding horses go)
has shoes which are getting on for 200mm across so 175 x 220 doesn't
really seem all that big. Police horses could well be that size and
big shires would probably be be even bigger.
