It's a good question, everything I read seems to just say 'well rotted manure'. I think this usually takes up to a year or more to get to the 'well rotted' stage, though you could probably just chuck it on the beds over winter.

You can usually pay someone to deliver a load of horse manure to your allotment, local farmer/stable etc. Ask one of the serious allotment types where they get theirs from they should have a name and number to ring. Least that’s how it works here. Think it’s about £30/40 a ton delivered. My inherent aversion to paying for anything I feel I could get for free has thus far prevented me buying any so I’m currently composting goat manure as I know someone who gives it away.

If you have stable/horsey ppl near, horseshit is usually (should be) free to cart away - you’re doing them a favour. If it’s ‘fresh’ bung it in a compost bin, the rot process takes a few months (dep. on the time of year it’s, er, produced :)
edit- too slow, also what @Tonts says :)

What's the process of dungery? I feel ours needs a lot of work - what do we do / when do we do it? What's the going rate for horse shit?
