What breeding is the bitch dilly?

A was gifted her from a  friend up north who was a beat keeper on a grouse moor, without getting her pedigree out I wouldn't have a clue.

A friend of mine had a first cross 20 odd years ago. Was heavy on the turn and would hunt up massively on the lamp. Bit of a nuisance really. It loved a fox, if it could catch one.  The Wire Haired Pointer dog used was a bit of an animal and a man biter.
