The Field

Aug 01 2020
Magazine

Published by Time Inc. (UK) Ltd The Field is a monthly glossy magazine dedicated to those brave souls who shoot, fish and hunt way beyond the call of duty. Since 1853, its staff has selflessly brought its readers the cream of rural life, be it pheasant shooting, dry-fly fishing or the distinct merits of Cheval Blanc. If you love field sports, errant terriers and very foxy friends at hunt balls, The Field is for you.

The Field • ESTABLISHED 1853 VOL 336 NO 7392

Empowering those ‘up the glen’ • Late changes to the Animal and Wildlife bill in Scotland were bewildering to moorland managers, however, Gift of Grouse and regional groups are giving them a voice at last

Art in the field • Few of us will ever get to see a capercaillie lekking live. However, thanks to Justin Prigmore we can still appreciate the spectacle.

A dog is for life not just for lockdown

Bring a picnic, says the NGS

In brief

The Naked, Strewth • A MONTHLY EXPLORATION OF THE BRITISH FONDNESS FOR REMOVING CLOTHES IN A GOOD CAUSE

The shows must go on

New in the field • Our monthly guide to everything covetable in the coverts, tremendous on the Test and bang on in the butt

Letters • Write to: The Editor, The Field, Pinehurst II, Pinehurst Road, Farnborough Business Park, Farnborough, Hampshire GU14 7BF. Email: field.secretary@futurenet.com

Green theme for garden village • A garden village next to the M54 being planned by Lord Newport of Bradford Estates will be much focused on environmental sustainability, with solar power, cycle paths and battery-charging points

Country estate of the month • LEA HOUSE, LYMINGTON, HAMPSHIRE

Six of the best: Dorset, Devon & Cornwall properties

Our love affair with quarry • As the Twelfth approaches – and the inevitable media assault – Editor Jonathan Young says that it is now more important than ever that we champion our wildlife

Love in the time of lockdown • Eve Jones finds that there’s a big difference between living with someone and L-I-V-I-N-G W-I-T-H S-O-M-E-O-N-E

A paean to grace • We watch setters and pointers flow over moor and mountain with the ease of a burn in spate. Suddenly they brake, turn and freeze. Scent is hot, the game is on

Howesyke, showing how it should be done • This intensive hill farm in the Yorkshire Dales has been transformed into an award-winning shoot, commended for its re-establishment of black grouse

Coveys, curlew and a castle • Testing conditions and Yorkshire Dales terrain gave guns a thoroughly sporting day at Bolton estate

The timeless appeal of grouse • We might moan about the weather or an uncomfortable butt but there is nowhere else we would rather be

The Macnab Challenge, fact and fiction • John Buchan’s 1925 novel John Macnab featured a fictional Highland challenge that has become part of shooting folklore – even if it didn’t include a grouse

Becoming obsessed with the dark arts • Fishing for sea-trout is perfect for both self-isolating and sociopaths – if you can stand the disruption to your body clock. And despair

Hunting, the haunt of the man-eating Delilah • American heiresses – confident, stylish and outgoing – invaded the Shires from the late-19th century. The fox was no longer the only thing being pursued…

Paladin’s War THE STORY BEHIND Old Gold Racing • A limited racing calendar offered respite from the grim realities of World War II. And Paladin became a nation’s unlikely hero

There’s gold under them thar fields • Or is there? A growing band of metal detectorists are scouring the countryside for buried treasure. The lucky few really do strike gold
