As no races are taking place at the moment, I'm creating some web pages entitled "where I was taking photos this time last year". Today, I'm looking at Match 4 of the Chiltern XC League which usually takes place at the College Equestrian Centre in Keysoe which is a village that is about 10M North of Bedford. It is about 64M from Oxford.
There are details of the Chiltern XC League on this web page. Last year, Match 4 took place on Sat Jan 11th 2020. This year's race was to have taken place today (Sat Jan 9th 2021). Unfortunately, because of Covid-19 it has had to be cancelled.
By the way, you can click on any of the photos on this web page to see the photo in hi-res.

The above map is taken from the organizer's website.
