Sunday 1st – Hound Exercise – Blandys Farm – Upper Basildon
Ratcatcher/Tweed or Black/Blue coats, no need to plait.
Address : Blandys Farm, Upper Basildon, Pangbourne, Berkshire, RG8 8PH.
Directions : As the roads close to Blandy’s Farm are very narrow we are suggesting entering via Pangbourne and Aldworth Road, turning into Bethesda Street and then right into Blandy’s Lane. Blandy’s Farm will then be on your left and this will be a better route for trailers and lorries.
