The hounds are bigger and heavier than the South Downers.

Smaller packs are Lord Leconfield's Fox Hounds, which have the Charlton country; the Eastbourne Fox Hounds, to which the East Sussex Fox Hounds allotted a share of the western part of their country east of the Cuckmere; and the Burstow and Eridge packs.

Of Harriers, the best are the Brighton Harriers, so long hunted by Mr.Hugh Gorringe of Kingston-by-Sea, a very smart pack lately covering the ground between the Adur and Falmer, and now adding the Brookside Harriers' country to their own domain, the two packs having been amalgamated.

In the east are the Bexhill Harriers and the Hailsham Harriers; and in the west the South Coast Harriers, for the Chichester country.

Sussex, in addition to possessing the Warnham Staghounds, is much raided by the Surrey Staghounds.
