Ye Olde Redtail Falconry are Ray and Wendy Aliker, one of the most well-known and memorable display teams in the UK. Ray’s childhood interest in cage birds developed into a full-time falconry career, and together he and Wendy Aliker have been appearing at shows up and down the country, including the Sussex Country Fair, for over seventeen years.

The Sussex Country Fair provides a true a celebration of Working Dogs, and provides an insight into the unique bond that develops between a dog and its handler. There are few partnerships between man and dog that are as closely linked than those of a shepherd and his sheepdog.  We are pleased to welcome David Seamark to the Sussex Country Fair to demonstrate this ancient partnership that has stewarded our countryside for eons.

Rabbits are one of the most common pests in the UK, causing untold amounts of damage to crops, trees and gardens.  But, fortunately, help is on hand in the form of master netsman Brian Brinded, known to his friends as “Brin”. Long-netting is one of the oldest methods of controlling rabbits, and is considered by many to be the most efficient and humane ways of controlling rabbit populations.

There are few sounds more beautifully haunting than that of the bagpipes. For over 20 years The Sussex Country Fair has welcomed some of the worlds leading pipe bands to perform in the Main Arena, and we are delighted to welcome the Green Hackle Pipe Band in 2010.

The Murray sisters perform dazzling and breathtaking equine stunts and demonstrations for audiences at the Sussex Country Fair.

Sisters Siobhan and Ann Marie Murray exhibit extraordinary horsemanship skills on stallions which they have ridden since infancy.

Based at Lains Shooting School, Mullenscote Gundogs started training dogs for the shooting field in 1987. Their first clients were friends who saw their dogs work up through the field, and were so impressed that they asked for help with their training.
