Also they should not use cycle lanes unless local signs explicitly state otherwise.

I didn't know that specific rule but I think I would have assumed it were I riding a horse.

In regard to road rules I'd see a horse as more a downgraded car than an upgraded bike, sorta like a motorbike but slower.

It's not a rule, it's a "should not", not a "must not".

Rule 54: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/the-highway-code/rules-about-ani...

> You MUST NOT take a horse onto a footpath or pavement, and you should not take a horse onto a cycle track. Use a bridleway where possible. Equestrian crossings may be provided for horse riders to cross the road and you should use these where available (see Rule 27). You should dismount at level crossings where a ‘horse rider dismount’ sign is displayed.
