The Court Leet has carried on this custom in years gone by but this year the Leet would like to amend it slightly to attract a wider participation. This year we plan to walk about 9 miles around a large part of the manor boundary and the teams (no minimum and no maximum size) will go through various check points, collecting items or answering treasure hunt questions from around the route. There is a cash prize for the team with the most correct answers and so it is not timed and it is not a race. Read more...
This year the event will take place at Ragley Hall, the home of The Marquess and Marchioness of Hertford and their family.
The CLA Game Fair covers all country sports and countryside activities via major show areas and features which include demonstrations, displays, debates, championships, competitions, tuition and many 'Have a Go' opportunities. Click here for more information and to visit the CLA Game Fair website.
