  • Foxhunting and the Landscape Between 1700 and 1900; with Particular Reference to Norfolk and Shropshire
    Foxhunting and the landscape between 1700 and 1900; with particular reference to Norfolk and Shropshire Jane Bevan Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of History October 2011 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on the condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived from it, may be published without acknowledgement Abstract This thesis explores the history of foxhunting from 1700 to 1900. It examines how perceptions of an ideal hunting country, and what constituted an elite quarry, altered in tandem with alterations to the English lowland countryside. The relationship between the landscape and changes bought about by the upheaval of enclosure and agricultural development are discussed, in the context of the evolution in practice and geographical spread of foxhunting, at a national, regional and county-wide level. Several long-held beliefs are challenged. The social history of foxhunting and the increased participation of both ‘polite’ urban neophytes and prosperous tenant farmers during the two centuries is compared with the declining involvement of women. The impact of hunt clubs and the rise of subscription packs in the two study areas is contrasted. The influence of changes in the landscape on foxhunting is considered alongside the reciprocal impact of foxhunters manipulating the physical surroundings to enhance their sport. A detailed study of the history of hunting and its most iconic feature, the covert, in Norfolk and Shropshire highlights the importance of landowners control over the countryside.

  • Horse-Racing Hunting Cricket
    DRAFT – VCH Gloucestershire 15 [Cheltenham] Sport Horse-racing Formal horse-racing began on Cleeve Hill outside Cheltenham in 18181 and the first Cheltenham Gold Cup was run as a flat race the following year.2 In 1826 the races were described as generally taking place in July and lasting three days.3 In 1831 a new course was established at Prestbury Park and the Cheltenham Races in July attracted a large crowd of spectators.4 The Cheltenham Racecourse Company bought Prestbury Park in 1902, outside the borough limits within the parish of Prestbury.5 The Cheltenham Steeplechase Club was formed in 1907.6 A grandstand and club-house were built in 1908 and a race-course station was opened in 1912 on the main railway line. The course has been described as the finest steeplechase course in the world and since 1924 the race for the Cheltenham Gold Cup has been held there over jumps.7 In the late 1960s the Steeplechase Club provided two or three days’ racing each month between October and April, in addition to the National Hunt meeting in March.8 The railway line closed to passenger trains in 1968, but Gold Cup excursion trains continued to run until the line was closed completely in 1976.9 In 1988 the National Hunt Festival in March brought 25,000 visitors to Cheltenham.10 In 2001 the Gold Cup was not run for the first time since 1944, because of the Foot and Mouth epidemic.11 In 2012 60,000 people attended the Gold Cup.12 Hunting The Berkeley Hunt had established kennels in Cheltenham by 1815.13 In the 1820s the Berkeley Hounds hunted in the vicinity of Cheltenham in November, January, March and part of April.
