Organisers said it was a great family day out – and thankfully the weather stayed dry.

The event took place at the The Arbour in Ilam, near Ashbourne, on Saturday.

The showground is situated close to the Staffordshire-Derbyshire border.

Manifold Show mainly takes entries from the parishes bounding the course of the River Manifold.
