Lower photograph shows horses out on the far part of the course, while the top one shows the crowd cheering home the winner.

My father always took me to the Point to Point at Friars Wash. Between the wars, he hunted over this ground, I believe the ‘ man who would be king’ Edward the 8th, also hunted there.
I so well remember attending one of the Point to Point meetings when living in Redbourn. Such memories.
