Stokesley Farmer's Beagles were founded in 1938. The hunt country consists of a mixture of arable, grass and moorland. It extends from the River Tees to the River Esk and includes the Tees valley, the Cleveland Hills, and the northern part of the North York Moors to the coast.

The country is a mixture of the   heather moors along the Esk valley near the villages of Danby, Glaisdale, and Kildale;  and traditional farmland around the lowland villages of Maltby, Ingleby Greenhow, and Great Broughton which are not far from the market town of Stokesley which is about 5 miles south of Middlesbrough. 

The hunting season runs from October to March with meets on Wednesday and Saturday. Visitors are always most welcome
