Coursing At Rooty Hill

Coursing At Rooty Hill

Rob Tyler -Out of interest, my old property at Plumpton backed onto the coursing grounds there. I had no idea until Joe Power ( former NCA Director/ Trainer) etc. came over home one day and told me. Didn’t old Joe have a story to tell about the ‘old’ days. 😂
Jeff Collerson– Rob Tyler Sure did., he was on the NCA committee for yonks, (Treasurer I thin) and a very good trainer
Jeff Collerson– What a great pic. You still see sights like this at the big coursing meetings OVERSEAS
Richard Codd– A golden era will never be seen again
Terry Hodge– I went there in the late 60’s, no longer in use, but just wanted to see and walk on the site which was still indicated in street directories of the day. Tragic I know but it was in the blood. Was just vacant land but I could imagine matches happening.
