6th September 2008
The 2008 Moreton Show will be held on Saturday, 6 September with Horses, Cattle [including the national Show of Poll Hereford Cattle], Sheep [including the National Show of Cotswold Sheep and other Rare Breeds], Goats, Poultry, Food Retail and Home and Garden Marquees, hundreds of trade stands and a full day's entertainment.
The site is old permanent pasture in a parkland setting. There are no permanent show buildings which means the Show is built up in the traditional way with marquees and hurdle pens giving a true country show atmosphere.
Competitions are held for horses, ponies, cattle [including the National Show of Poll Hereford cattle], sheep [including the National Show of Cotswold Sheep], goats, poultry, dogs, homecrafts, flowers, vegetables and even scarecrows. Around 250 tradestands provide everything from a tractor to a toy and a wide selection of food and drink - both to eat at once and to take home.
This site is kindly sponsored by Steve and Val Farnsworth of Grimes House Gallery, Moreton-in-Marsh - Specialist dealers in Fine Art and Cranberry Glass.
