This evocative photograph, published in the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News on November 21, 1925, captures the essence of the Whaddon Chase Foxhounds' meet at Adstock Folly near Buckingham. The image transports us back to the 1920s, a time of elegance and tradition in English society. The scene is set in the picturesque countryside, with the hounds gathered around their master, who stands proudly at the center, dressed in hunting attire. The hounds, with their keen eyes and alert expressions, seem ready to embark on the chase. In the background, the grand Adstock Folly ruins add an air of mystery and intrigue to the setting. The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News was a popular publication during the 1920s, known for its coverage of sporting and dramatic events. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of hunting as a social pastime, and the role it played in shaping the social fabric of the time. The photograph also serves as a portrait of the Whaddon Chase Foxhounds, a respected and historic hunting pack based in Buckinghamshire.

This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into a bygone era and the traditions and customs that shaped it.
