Studley Royal Shoot “provides an unparalleled sporting experience steeped in gameshooting history. Situated in a stunning only twenty minutes from Harrogate, the Shoot offers three separate days of shooting with thirty-four drives.” Shooting begins in October and goes through to the end of January. So far nothing out of the ordinary in a country obsessed with killing birds for fun. Until you realise that the four-thousand-acre estate was once the country seat of the 2nd Marquess of Ripon and is now the National Trust-operated Fountains Abbey, a UNESCO World Heritage Site putting it on a level of cultural importance alongside Stonehenge, Versailles, and Machu Pichu. Packed with tourists in the summer, hosting ‘sportsmen’ every week over the winter. And, no, the attached image is not fake or created by AI, it really does show men killing birds in the ruins of a UNESCO World Heritage Site…
