Woolsery Show Time. Farming traditions and rural life

What better way to celebrate rural life than a visit to a traditional agricultural show. The first Woolfardisworthy "Colt Show", now the Woolsery Show, was held in 1892 and apart from the war, foot and mouth and Covid it has continued to be a draw for locals and visitors to Bideford, North Devon. It is now held annually on the last Monday in July. In 2008 the show moved from the Milky Way Family Park at Higher Clovelly to the grounds of the Clovelly Court Estate.

Featured just a few of the events in the main ring, surrounded by colourful trade, farming community and vintage equipment and food stands and craft marques.
