EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the quintessential English countryside scene between the Red Mile and Belvoir, Leicestershire, in the year 1936. The image portrays a serene and picturesque landscape, dotted with trees and hedgerows that stretch as far as the eye can see. In the distance, the grand Belvoir Castle stands proudly, a symbol of history and nobility. The area between Red Mile and Belvoir was renowned for its association with the Belvoir Hunt, a traditional fox hunt that was a popular pastime in the region during the 1930s. Foxhunting was a sport that brought together the local community, with the hunt being a social event as much as a sporting one. The image captures the essence of this pastime, with the red coats of the huntsmen and the white hounds in full pursuit of their quarry. The scene is idyllic, with the sun casting long shadows over the rolling hills and the trees providing a beautiful contrast against the clear blue sky. The photograph transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of rural England. The hedges and fields, which were once a part of the extensive Belvoir Estate, add to the sense of history and tradition. This photograph is an exquisite illustration of the beauty and charm of the English countryside, and a reminder of the rich history and traditions that have shaped the region. It is a must-have for anyone with an interest in British history, rural landscapes, or the sporting traditions of the past.
