Border Hunt

The Border Hunt is a UK foxhound pack,[1] with hunting country on the Scottish/English border. The Hunt is run by a committee under the joint mastership of Ian Hedley MFH, and his son, Michael Hedley MFH.

History

The Border Hunt is at least 130 years old. In 1951 Jacob Robson resigned the Mastership and handed over the pack to a Committee. Since then, the Border Hunt Mastership has been with the Hedley Family and the hounds are kennelled near Otterburn, Northumberland.

Country

The Border Hunt country stretches from the River Rede in the south to Jedburgh in the north, covering hill and open moorland which straddles the Scottish/English border. Adjacent Hunts are the North Tyne, Haydon, Tynedale, Morpeth, College Valley and North Northumberland, West Percy, Liddesdale, Jed Forest and the Duke of Buccleuch's.
