It is reported that hunting was carried out in the district almost a century earlier by a pack which was bought down from the Essex and Norfolk country. <br><br> The hunt has a long and interesting history which is well worth researching . One of the longest standing Masters was H J Conyers Esq. He devoted over 40years to the Essex hunt. <br><br> The Essex Hunt Club was founded at a meeting of subscribers and supporters of the Essex hunt on March 11th 1882. The meeting was held at the Cock Hotel, Epping. http://www.essexfoxhounds.com/ 1.00 Essex Horse Retirement - A beautiful horse retirement set in 200 acres of paradise where your equine friend can spend their days and nights grazing, roaming and playing - the large fields are bordered mainly with hedges and woodland, providing natural shelter together with a safe and peaceful enviroment - the horses are checked every day - any problems are reported to the owners asap - there are stables availble if needed - we live on the farm and so cater for horses needing convalescence care with a vet on call 24/7 - we welcome you to come and vist us and have a tour and a chat about your needs. - Contact: tania knowles Phone: 01277355094 http://www.essexhorseretirement.co.uk 1.00 The Essex Equestrian helps you find information on Horse riding and Equestrian events in Essex, UK.
