The Hunt
The country overlies that of the Belvior, Cambridgeshire, Puckeridge, East Sussex, Grafton, Fitzwilliam, Fernie, Quorn, West Norfolk and Woodland Pytchley. The lines are up to 10 miles long with 1 or 2 'checks'. Obstacles vary according to where the meet is held and include hedges, timber and ditches.      

The hunt dates back to 1855 with kennels at Cherry Hinton. It was in existence until 1938 and was restarted in 1946. The hounds are the property of the Masters.
