| Hunt country: |
The country is predominantly in Airedale and Wharfdale streching west into Lancashire. The terrain is fell and rough pasture with high stone walls. Adjoining packs are the Claro Beagles, Pendal Forest & Craven Harriers and the Colne Valley Beagles. A strong well built hound is required to hunt this demanding hill country in often harsh weather conditions. Hounds must be capable of and are expected to be able to hunt every day. |
| History: |
The pack evolved from earlier packs, including the Bradford Harriers to be established in 1891. From 1922 until 1983 in Eldwick Bingley. They now reside at Silsden. |
