HEAVY rain failed to dampen the spirits of the thousands of visitors who attended this year's Ryedale Show.
Although gate numbers were down the show - one of the largest one-day agricultural shows in the country - was still enjoyed by people from both the local area and further afield.
Entries were up in the majority of classes as competitor made the best of the damp weather.
Show secretary Christine Thompson said: "It takes a year to plan the show so we keep going as best we can and once again everyone had been very good humoured and enjoyed a top notch show."
