The Monmouthshire Hunt continued its traditional New Years Day meet at Monmouth Castle with around 30 horses and an estimated 300 members of the public.

Joint Masters David Harrison and Liz Edgerton were joined by Huntmaster Matthew Hickmott and others along with the pack of hounds that prove so popular with the smaller supporters.

David Harrison thanked the Royal Engineers for allowing them to meet on the castle square and everyone for turning out and supporting them.

"We wish you all a happy New Year and it's nice to see so many here supporting the hunt, we will be back next year".

There was no hunting that day due to the wet ground.
