Great day for it.
William Crowther, 7, from Bewdley with Mavel the giant tortoise at Burwarton Show
Billed as the biggest show in Shropshire, it is certainly one of the oldest, with the event dating back to 1891.Will Nash, 7, and Heather Brumell, 6, from Bridgnorth with prizes they won One of the highlights of the displays was that of water buffalo recently brought by Tony Scott, of Scotty's Donkeys and Animals in Norton. People flocked to pet the surprisingly tame creatures, who arrived at Tony's popular attraction last week.Carol Preece, Millie Sinclair, Gordon Preece and Chloe Perruzza, 11, from Orchard Valais Blacknose in Herefordshire
"This is a big event in the calendar. I have been involved in farming for many years and this has always been a highlight. It is a year in the planning as well because as soon as this one finishes, the hard work will start on next year's show."Ben Brooks and Wilfred Brooks, 3, from BathMr Watkins said he was indebted to the 400 volunteers who were needed on the day to marshal the expected 20,000 crowd, and that the without them the show would not have gone ahead.
"There is also so much to do for the whole day, with loads of animals on display, though the equestrian events are a highlight for us. Ginge is enjoying it as well and getting plenty of attention."David Bastable and his wife Eileen had travelled from Dudley for the event and he said it gave them a chance to experience a side of life they wouldn't normally be able to see
They were set to enjoy the many displays in the main parade ring but one absentee was the popular Atkinson Horses troupe, with the horses suffering fly bites that had become infected.
