MOUNTED GYMKHANA AT STORTFORD

OVER £160 FOR HOSPITAL

What is claimed to be the largest event of its kind in the country, the annual Bishop’s Stortford Mounted Gymkhana in aid of the Hospital took place at Silver Leys on Saturday¹, there being 589 entries, a record number. The attendance was also a record, so it is not surprising that the amount raised for the Hospital over £160, compared with £151 last year, was the highest yet.
