Dalston village showfield is bursting at the seams today as the much-anticipated annual agricultural show takes centre stage.

Thousands are expected to the event which has always been a firm favourite with visitors and competitors alike.

The band of volunteers who spend countless hours putting together the show guarantee a day of non-stop fun and entertainment.

The cream of the crop of the county's livestock are being judged with the best of the best lining up later in the day in the show's main ring for the accolade everybody want's to take home, the Champion of Champions.

Elsewhere on the showfield visitors can count on being treated to some good old-fashioned fun including bouncy castles, bucking bronco and roving entertainers.
