you should add 2 inches, but i find that 1.5 inches is more accurate. you would be a 16.5-17 inch depending on the saddle.

There is no equivalent to a saddle horn on an English saddle. The English saddle has no horn to any equivalent. The Western saddle was made for the cowboys, who needed something to help anchor the rope to after roping a cow. This is where the Western saddle was invented, designed for comfort for long days of hard riding in the saddle, and for usefulness, which is why it has all the little straps to tie things to, perfect room for saddle bags and such, and with the saddle horn having the direct purpose of dallying the rope. The English saddle was not used by cowboys, and therefore, there was no use for a saddle horn, so there is nothing there.
The main difference is that a Western saddle has a horn, while an English saddle does not.
to measure a saddle you need a measuring tape and follow these steps: 1: put the tape on the D ring on the pommel of the saddle(the rind at the front of the saddle) 2: now measure from the D rind to the middle of the cantle (the back of the saddle) 3: now in inches write down the recording! NOTE: THIS ONLY WORKS FOR ENGLISH STYLE SADDLES! NOT WESTERN STYLE!
You just sit into the saddle and go with the rhythm!

Well any type of saddle can be treeless. Typically a english saddle will be made with a spring tree to offer support and comfort. Treeless saddles can be tricky to fit sometimes, but then so can any saddle in general.
Yes, a cinch is on a western saddle, a girth is on an English saddle.
