Hallaton Hare Pie Scramble & Bottle Kicking
Scramble 2 pm : Game : 3pm
Hallaton, Market Harborough LE16 8TY
An ancient custom with two distinct parts. The first is a charity dole and the second is a mass “ballgame” played with small wooden casks called bottles. Starts with a procession from the Fox Inn through the village, led by the Warrener with his hare-topped staff and his attendants with baskets of bread and the eponymous Hare Pie (I believe it’s minced beef these days). The Bottles, be-ribboned,filled with ale and each weighing 5 kg. Once at the church gate, the pie is blessed and distributed to the crowd; the Procession then returns to the Buttercross in the centre of the village where the loaves are given out and then goes back to the Fox. Play is between the villagers of Hallaton and their neighbours from Medbourne and the goals are a mile apart; the bottles are thrown in the air.
