Ian Bell arrived at the restaurant in Carlisle with his horse Jon Jon but was told to leave for the health and safety of other customers.

Ian said: ''I had queued up behind some cars and was about to order a Bargain Bucket when all of a sudden this manager came out and said 'you're not allowed through'.

''I couldn't believe what I was hearing, I'd done nothing wrong. Jon Jon was behaving himself, he was quiet as a lamb - he's a very well-behaved horse.''

Ian branded his treatment from KFC as ''disgusting''.

He said: ''I think my treatment from KFC has been downright disgusting and discriminatory against people who use horse and carts.

''The horse and cart is a common way to get around where I'm from.''
