TENBURY Wells' beloved agricultural show drew crowds once again for the 165th year.

The celebration of rural life drew thousands into the showground near Burford and Tenbury Wells, with plenty on offer, including the Hereford Cattle Show, handling classes, a tractor pulling contest, and a display from both the Ludlow and Herefordshire and Clifton Hunt in the arena.

Charles Hurst was one of the lucky farmers to pick up several rosettes throughout the day, including for his Lleyn and Hampshire Downs sheep.

Mr Hurst has also recently competed at both the Royal Welsh Show, and the Three Counties Show, near Malvern.

This year, Countryfile presenter Adam Henson was the guest of honour at this year's show, following Clarkson's Farm star, Harriet Cowan's appearance in 2025.

Mr Henson, who runs the Cotswold Farm Park is a dedicated supporter of rare and native livestock breeds, and he spent much of the day in the show ring judging different classes.

The presenter spent much time judging the competitive and well-attended junior handlers classes, and awarded 13-year-old Tilly James, from near Malvern, the top prize for handling her Ryeland ewe lambs.

The National Federation of Young Farmers' Clubs has hosted its tug of war finale at the Tenbury Show since 2013, and crowds certainly didn't disappoint this year.

Plenty of cheering and encouragement could be heard from the sidelines as YFC clubs from all over the country donned their gripping boots and their branded polo tops to go head to head.
