Cottesmore Hunt Meet at Loddington

Had some better weather recently so went out to get a bit of fresh air and take a few pictures of the Cottesmore Hunt meeting at Loddington in Leicestershire. It was a good turnout, lots of mounted followers and foot followers there to enjoy the weather.

While there my old friend and very good equestrian photographer turned up to take some images for the Horse and Hound. We had a chat about the state of photography and then he went off to earn a crust. Nice to see you Nico.

This year it was the turn of the Cottesmore Hounds to meet in the Play Close in Melton Mowbray for the annual New Year Meet in the town courtesy of the Melton Mowbray Town Estate.

Senior Town Warden, Mr Richard Sage, was there to greet the huntsman and the mounted followers as they arrived.

A good turnout from the local townspeople were also there giving the morning a really good atmosphere.

After the meet the Huntsman, Neil Coleman, lead off with the hounds and the followers behind, towards Whissendine for a days hunting.
