Silver gilt bugle and badges presented to the Anglesey Hunt in 1824

Description

This silver gilt bugle and badges were worn on the sash of the Lady Patroness of the Anglesey Hunt in the Hunt Ball. The bugle was presented to the Hunt by Thomas Peers Williams in 1824 to mark his term of office as Comptroller of the Hunt. The silver gilt badges are in the form of a druid's head and the claws of a fox.

The Anglesey Hunt boasts the title of being the oldest hunt in Britain: its earliest minute book dates back to 1757.
