BLANCHLAND Show is hoping to draw the crowds with a packed programme of traditional fun this Bank Holiday Monday.

The showfield will open at 11am on Monday. And for their entry fee, visitors can enjoy a myriad of entertainment with live music, children’s games, fancy dress, a craft tent and and a display of vintage cars, tractors and steam engines.

Rare breed sheep and wooly alpacas will rub shoulders with prize winning Texels and Swaledales and the gun dog scurry is expected to remain as popular as ever. Tents will open at 1pm, with the skills of master craftsmen and women, bakers, gardeners and artists on show.

Children’s entertainment, a quoits competition and the ever popular open terrier show will take place in the afternoon before the show closes with prize giving and more live music.
