A BUMPER crowd and mostly dry conditions greeted the return of the Lunesdale Show after bad weather and foot-and-mouth disease forced a two-year absence.

Visitors to the Kirkby Lonsdale Rugby Ground venue were entertained by displays from the Vale of Lune Hunt, fancy dress competitions, Punch and Judy shows as well as the usual agricultural competitions.

This year’s show’s supreme champion beast was Lucenty Doorbell, a two-year-old Holstein owned by Robert and Elaine Butterfield, of Linghal Farm, Bentham.

Mr Butterfield credited his victory to a vast experience of entering shows.

“It is nice to win here,” he said. “We have been winning all over this year with another cow but we are resting her today. This one has come second at the Great Yorkshire Show and second at Garstang but this is the first time it has won. I’m always proud of winning with a home-bred cow.”

Over in the sheep pens Alan Blair’s supreme champion – a one-crop Suffolk ewe – dominated a large turnout of different breeds.

“It is the first time I have been to the show,” he said.

“There must be towards 20 breeds so I am very pleased to win at such a well-run show on a good field.”

James Airey, Conservative councillor on South Lakeland District Council, who was a judge in the sheep competition, said: “I think it has been an excellent standard. It is good to see the show back after two years – we missed it last year and all the stallholders and exhibitors are pleased. It is very important for the area.

Barbara Gorst, the show’s president, who was the secretary for 11 previous shows, said it was good to have a chance to look around the displays.

“The highlight for me has been to go around and see the attractions,” she said. “I was impressed by the variety in the food hall and the hand crafts are always of a high standard.

“It was important for the show to go ahead this year. They are an important part of rural life.

"It gives the farming community an opportunity to display its stock and the non-rural people a chance to see some of the things that go on in the countryside.”

And the show’s appeal is widespread – with some visitors travelling long distances.

Roger Clarke, from the Midlands, was at his fourth Lunesdale Show.

He said: “We’ve enjoyed it so much in the past that we planned our holiday around it.”
