    KNIGH'ILOW HUNDRED KENILWORTH DIVISION. 741 The NORTH WARWICKSHIRE HUNT has been established mainly through the exertion of the Right Hon. Lord Leigh, and other noblemen and gentlemen in the vicinity of Leamington. It com­ prises a large pack of hounds, and is supported by subscriptions. The kennels have been erected about 1 mile from Leamington on the Kenilworth road. Another pack of hounds is kept at Atherstone, but the meets do not take place near to Leamington, in consequence of which railway conveniences are made during the season. FISHING and BOATING. Good pike fishing may be had in the River Learn and Avon, and boats may be hired at the Mill, and at the bridge at Emscote. The scenery along the banks of the rivers is very picturesque, and an hour's rowing will well repay the lover of nature. The WARNEFORD HOSPITAL. In 1825 an hospital was founded in Regent-street. Being confined 'in its situation, and too small for the number of patients, at the annual general meeting, in April, 1831, the propriety of erecting a new one having been considered, a sub­ scription was entered into for that purpose, which, in about twelve months, exceeded the sum of £2,500, including the handsome donation of £1,500 and a further sum of 1000 guineas by the Rev. Dr. Warneford, Rector of Burton-on-the-Hill, Gloucestershire, and his sister, Miss Warneford. Thebenevolencethusmanifested, together with a grant of land, on the Radford road, by the Earl of Aylesford, was followed by an unanimous resolution that a new building should be erected on the site named, and in honour of the Rev.

To avoid conflicts with the Dutch Healthy Aleing Tour the women’s edition was delayed time after time. Until Paris-Roubaix for women was added to the calendar, the Dutch moving their race to early March and thus creating space for the first Ladies Scheldeprijs. The interest to start in Schoten was overwhelming, several teams had to be denied from participating. Finally 28 teams and 152 riders were allowed to start. The route included a long stretch through the Nord Kempen and three local laps in Schoten. In the first hour the ladies covered 42,5 km. The peloton broke into pieces and a few crashes, none serious, eliminated some of the riders. In the local laps Daniek Hengeveld took a 1’20” lead but in the final lap the peloton quickly approached. Also the Italian Letizia Borghesi made an effort to break away from the pack but it all came together and a sprint would need to decide on a winner. It was the fast Dutch rider Lorena Wiebes who became the first female winner of the new Scheldeprijs.
