Among the activities enjoyed were more than 350 shopping stands, pony rides, a traditional fun fair and a food and drink hall.

Visitors were also invited to "have a go" at country sports ranging from clay shooting to archery and axe-throwing, while dogs could enter the pet dog show or jump in the K9 Aqua Sports pool.

Show director Tracey Grand previously said the show's enduring success was down to the "passion, creativity and determination" of the team which runs it.
