Badby, viewed from Kewnham: A Scene from the Pytchley Hunt Area, Northamptonshire, 1936 This evocative photograph captures the essence of the English countryside and the tradition of foxhunting in the 1930s. The image, taken in the Pytchley Hunt area of Northamptonshire, specifically from the village of Kewnham, showcases the picturesque village of Badby nestled in the rolling hills and lush fields. The scene is set with trees lining the horizon, their branches reaching out to frame the quaint cottages and the expansive fields beyond. At the heart of the photograph, a group of riders can be seen in the distance, their red coats and hunter's caps contrasting against the green landscape. The foxhound pack, led by an experienced huntsman, follows closely behind, their keen noses alert and focused on the trail. The hounds' keen sense of smell and the riders' expertise in tracking and following the scent make for an exhilarating chase, a testament to the thrill and excitement of foxhunting. The Pytchley Hunt, one of the oldest in the country, has a rich history dating back to the 16th century. The tradition of foxhunting, a quintessential British pastime, has been a part of the rural communities in Northamptonshire and the Midlands for centuries. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into a bygone era and the unique connection between man, horse, and hound in the beautiful English countryside.
