A good crowd assembled at The Green in St Boswells to watch the New Year meet of the Buccleuch Foxhounds. The hunt was founded in 1827 by the 5th Duke of Buccleuch. Following the hunting ban in 2002, foxes have to be flushed to guns in accordance with a protocol recognised by the police and landowners. The New Year meet was held on Monday 2nd January as hunting does not take place on Sundays.
