Spectators lined the streets of Helston yesterday to see Cury Hunt lead its annual Boxing Day meet.

Resplendent in their colourful jackets, the huntsmen and women stopped in Coinagehall Street to allow the public to meet the horses and hounds.

After about half an hour the hunt gathered at the bottom of the street before the horns sounded and the horses, led by joint master Adam Tiffin, and with the excited hounds a tangled blur at their feet, left en mass for a four-hour run.
