Not everyone at the Hunt meet was a fan...

            This is one of a series of shots taken in the market town of Thornbury in South Gloucestershire as the local Berkely hunt take part in the UK-wide traditional Boxing Day meet

The Berkeley Hunt is a foxhound pack in the west of England. In terms of its “patch”, this covers between the River Severn in the west and the A46 in the east where it borders the Duke of Beaufort’s Hunt. 

It is said it is the oldest pack in the country (hounds have been kept at Berkeley Castle since the 12th century). It remains one of the very few that are still family owned and the property of the Berkeley family. 

The Fifth Earl of Berkeley could hunt his hounds from Berkeley Castle to Berkeley Square in London and had six kennels along the route. The season would start in Berkeley and progress to each of his kennels to London and then in stages back again to Gloucestershire. 

The present kennels date from the early 18th century and are home to around 90 hounds.
