Teesdale Sheep Show

0

For many years Teesdale has been one of my favourite parts of England, and at the end of September I was lucky enough to visit what I consider to be a “proper” country show, one without all the commercial baggage that accompanies so many nowadays.

The Langdon Beck Sheep Show, which at one point vanished from the agricultural calendar for over 100 years, is held in a small field outside the Langdon Beck Hotel.

The level of passion demonstrated by everyone participating was clear to see, and this was not dampened by an early autumn drizzle. Competition for prizes in the many classes was serious, and there were a lot of sheep, and even more pride on show in the judging area. There was also a real sense of community surrounding the whole event, and it was a pleasure to be able to make some pictures in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.
