Description

This sketch book was compiled by Mrs T. E. J. Lloyd of Plas Tregaean, Anglesey. It depicts the Anglesey Hunt Week procession at Beaumaris in 1880. Mrs Lloyd was the wife of Colonel T. E. J. Lloyd, deputy-comptroller of the Anglesey Hunt. The names of those taking part in the procession have also been noted on some of the sketches. This additional information clearly shows that the Anglesey Hunt was an important social event for members of the aristocratic and landowning families of north-west Wales at that period.
