Kimblewick Hunt

The Kimblewick Hunt was formed in 2002 as the result of an amalgamation of the Vale of Aylesbury with the Garth and South Berks hunts.[1] The hunt, which kennels its hounds at Kimblewick, Buckinghamshire, hunts country in Bedfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire, Hertfordshire and Oxfordshire. Hunt servants wear yellow livery and male masters wear traditional hunting scarlet, but with a yellow collar.[2]

The hunt traditionally organises the Easter Saturday point-to-point at Kimble, near Aylesbury, a highlight in the Buckinghamshire social season. Other point-to-points take place during the season at Kingston Blount.

Kimblewick hunt have now twice been caught on camera illegally hunting foxes under the smokescreen of "trail" hunting. The first time ended in two convictions, and the second time is currently under investigation by Thames valley Police.
