EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the picturesque village of Cockington near Torquay in South Devon during the 1960s, showcases the South Devon Foxhounds and their huntsmen preparing for a fox hunt. The huntsmen, dressed in their distinctive red jackets and jodhpurs, are seen mounting their horses, adjusting their stirrups, and checking their equipment. The hounds, an essential part of the pack, are tethered nearby, their ears perked up and eyes focused on their human companions. The scene exudes the charm of a bygone era, with the thatched roofs of the old English inn in the background adding to the idyllic setting. The huntsmen, their faces etched with determination and concentration, appear poised and ready for the chase. The horses, strong and powerful, stand patiently, their coats glistening in the sunlight. Fox hunting, a traditional English sport, has been a part of the West Country's rich heritage for centuries. The sight of huntsmen and hounds setting off on horseback through the rolling hills and countryside is a quintessential image of rural England. This photograph is a beautiful testament to the enduring appeal of this age-old pastime and the strong bond between man, horse, and hound.
