Villagers and visitors have been thanked for turning out in force to support the 2012 Askwith Show.
Poor weather failed to dampen the spirits of those who headed to the event on Saturday, June 9, to enjoy a feast of traditional attractions.
Llamas, baby calves and pygmy goats proved a hit with younger visitors, and there were also fine displays of sheep, horses, poultry, pigs, handicrafts and produce.
Show secretary Adele Marston said the mixture of display classes, a dog show, a visit from the Airedale Beagles and a variety of children’s entertainment and stalls all ensured a fun day out for everyone.
She said: “The show committee would like to thank everybody who attended this year’s event, and supported us despite the weather.
“It was a most enjoyable day with a real village show atmosphere.
“Thank you also to all the judges and stewards who gave their time on the day, and to everybody else who helped.”
