Thousands flocked to Harewood House in the heart of Yorkshire this weekend for Britain’s biggest annual celebration of countryside sports – the CLA Game Fair. A great sense of community and a deep love for all things bucolic has ensured the ever-growing success of the event for over 58 years, and from Shetland Pony Grand Nationals, ferret master classes and cooking demonstrations to have-a-go events and gundog trials – we certainly had a great time. Here are 20 photographs from the event this year.
