The Field May-26
"The May issue of The Field celebrates the landscapes of our country and those who manage, farm and revere them.
The past and present collide for Miles Malone when he spends a day with the gun of conservationist, beloved author and wildfowler Denys Watkins-Pitchford - best known as BB. As the simulated shooting season gets into swing, The Field compiles some of the best - from Hollywood-worthy settings to those a stone’s throw from town. Meanwhile, Ian Saberton traces the rise of the gun as the sporting gentleman’s weapon of choice.
Roger Field takes a trip down memory lane to fish the River Coln - after 40 years -with an old pal from the Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry, as Octavia Pollock celebrates the unsung heroes of the countryside who volunteer hours of their time to sustain our sport and way of life.
Minette, Baroness Batters, trailblazing former president of the National Farmers’ Union, talks to Madeleine Silver about life on the farm, her youth riding racehorses and her hopes for the years ahead. Estate succession and keeping it in the family is a hot topic: Rupert Bates speaks to those planning for the future.
Our native rare breeds have helped carve out our landscape. Mary Skipworth highlights four for their value to farming and biodiversity. And talking of leaving a mark, England’s chalk figures have fascinated for generations.
As the second series of Rivals hits television screens, one-time neighbour of Jilly Cooper Sybilla Hart lifts the lid of the real ‘Rutshire’, plus Sir Johnny Scott looks at the life of legendary huntsman ‘Ikey Bell’ and Nick Herbert takes the wheel of the Polaris Ranger, the gamekeepers’ favourite, and much, much more."

What do I get?
THE SHOOTING WORLD
Since 1853, The Field has fashioned the British style of shooting so admired across the world. We review the finest side-by-sides and over-and-unders made here and abroad and our unrivalled access to the best sporting estates takes you into the heart of the action, be it tramping over red bogs after snipe, standing in the butts of exclusive grouse moors or standing at the pegs of classic pheasant shoots. If you want to know where to shoot or what kit to buy, we have it all in our pages.
OUR FOUR-LEGGED FAMILY
Retrievers, peg dogs or pickers-up, terriers and hounds: The Field's life is incomplete without the companionship of working dogs, be they a labrador fetching your bird, hounds in full cry or the dreadful Jack Russell that's finished ratting and is now ruining your carpet. Our monthly sporting dog column keeps readers updated on the working dog world and regular features cover everything from training tips to best of breeds, hound shows and shooting over pointers.
THE REAL COUNTRY LIFE
The Field has always prided itself on encompassing all of country life within its pages, from shooting to fishing, hunting and stalking. We are dedicated to bringing the quirky richness of muddy-booted rural life to our readers, from wild food and the best recipes for country kitchens to buying vintage claret, coats that don't leak and making our countryside thrive for wildlife.
