All set for <strong>Show</strong> day<br />
Final preparations are well underway<br />
for the 142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> which will<br />
take place next week on Wednesday,<br />
19th July.<br />
Since it was first held in 1854, the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> has offered visitors a vast spectrum of<br />
attractions and entertainment.<br />
With its winning formula of celebrating the<br />
traditional and embracing the future, the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> has earned its place as a ‘must do’ event on<br />
the calendars of both the farming community and<br />
families looking for a good value day out.<br />
As well as the exceptional livestock and carcass<br />
section, visitors can look forward to browsing<br />
around over 500 trade stands, and visiting the<br />
handicraft and horticulture marquees, fur and<br />
feather section and companion dog show.<br />
The rural craft demonstration area, which<br />
increases in popularity each year, will again<br />
contain a wealth of traditional crafts and the <strong>Show</strong><br />
will play host to the annual National Fencing<br />
Competition, sponsored by the Landscape and<br />
Fencing News, which continues to strengthen<br />
and creates a huge amount of both national, and<br />
increasingly international, acclaim.<br />
As well as the wealth of equine expertise that<br />
we come to associate with the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>, the<br />
main ring will also feature entertainment from<br />
the Atkinson’s Action Horses. Atkinson Action<br />
Horses have spent the past twenty years training<br />
horses and riders for film and TV. With recent<br />
credits from Poldark, Victoria and Peaky Blinders<br />
– it is guaranteed this elite force has at some point<br />
invaded your TV screen!<br />
The Activity Arena also continues to grow and<br />
offers a wealth of family fun, entertainment and<br />
activities.<br />
David Tite, chief executive officer at the<br />
<strong>Show</strong>ground, said “Preparations are well<br />
underway now and our first marquees have started<br />
to go up on the <strong>Show</strong>ground.<br />
“We hope people come along and have a<br />
fantastic day out and leave happy having enjoyed<br />
all the activities, entertainment and exhibits and<br />
having seen people they haven’t seen for a year.<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
The paid for paper that reaches<br />
14,000 readers every week!<br />
Welcome to this special<br />
<strong>supplement</strong> produced by the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly for<br />
the 142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
We hope you all have a great<br />
day, enjoy reading this free 48-<br />
page special publication and<br />
take note of our many supporting<br />
advertisers.<br />
The <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
was launched two years ago next<br />
month – and what an amazing<br />
two years it has been for all<br />
involved – and is in the shops<br />
every Tuesday morning.<br />
In recent weeks we have<br />
broken our weekly sales record,<br />
selling close to 4,700 copies and<br />
reaching around 14,000 people.<br />
We produce up to 80 pages every<br />
week, and this week’s 112-page<br />
paper is our biggest ever.<br />
We have a great team of local<br />
staff, all who live locally, and<br />
whose families have attended<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> School & Sixth Form,<br />
and we believe that has been a<br />
key ingredient to the success of<br />
this East Riding business.<br />
Over the last two years the<br />
support from readers, clubs and<br />
societies in the area has been<br />
unbelievable, and on the back of<br />
their support we have been able<br />
to give them excellent coverage<br />
of what’s going on.<br />
We must say a special thank<br />
you to our many advertisers,<br />
many of whom have been loyal<br />
since day one and have had<br />
a brilliant response to their<br />
advertisements.<br />
We are continuing to see our<br />
distribution area increase and<br />
have nearly 50 outlets, plus<br />
delivery services who cover the<br />
many villages without a selling<br />

Dog lovers will be in for a real<br />
treat this year as the popular<br />
Companion Dog <strong>Show</strong> makes a<br />
welcome return to the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong>.<br />
The Companion Dog <strong>Show</strong> is<br />
just one aspect of the show which<br />
has gone from strength to strength<br />
and regularly attracts a very good<br />
entry of both pedigree and nonpedigree<br />
dogs all vying to have a<br />
good day out showing the working<br />
relationship of owner and dog.<br />
The show promises something<br />
for everyone with a selection of<br />
pedigree classes, as well as novelty<br />
classes such as the waggiest tail and<br />
the best trick.<br />
Behind all the fun and frivolity,<br />
every penny made from the<br />
Companion Dog <strong>Show</strong> is in aid of<br />
charity and this year the chosen<br />
charity is once again Canine<br />
Partners (Hull).<br />
Canine Partners is a registered<br />
charity that transforms the lives of<br />
people with physical disabilities<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Garden Centre looking forward to another successful year<br />
As previous gold medal winners of the<br />
horticultural trade exhibit at the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong>, staff from the Cranswick Garden<br />
Centre are looking forward to another<br />
successful year.<br />
Celebrating their 10th anniversary in October,<br />
owners Ray and Carolyn Sharpe are proud of the<br />
developments they have made to the retail offering<br />
at the popular garden centre on Burnbutts Lane<br />
in Hutton Cranswick, while still holding onto its<br />
strong nursery heritage.<br />
The family-run business offers a wealth<br />
of plants and seeds, garden furniture, bbqs,<br />
garden hardware and sundries, which they use<br />
in their displays at the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> to create<br />
inspirational garden designs which any green<br />
fingered gardener would be proud to call their<br />
own.<br />
Having worked in the retail garden industry all<br />
their careers, Ray and Carolyn, and son William,<br />
moved to Hutton Cranswick from York in 2007.<br />
Ray said: “We have made many improvements<br />
to the retail element of the business making it a<br />
Cranswick Garden Centre will celebrate their 10th anniversary in October.<br />
nicer environment for our customers to come and<br />
look around.<br />
“We pride ourselves on our nursery heritage;<br />
60% of the plants we sell are grown here and we<br />
have a new glasshouse so we can now grow even<br />
more.<br />
“We are a family-run business and have lots of<br />
regular customers, some of who visit us three or<br />
four times a week, and we always enjoy having a<br />
chat with them and believe we offer the personal<br />
touch.”<br />
He added that the garden centre has plans<br />
to keep it moving forward and to continually<br />
improve the services and products on offer.<br />
He said: “We have plans to improve our coffee<br />
shop area, which is always busy, especially at<br />
lunchtimes and weekends. We are also looking to<br />
take on an apprentice on the nursery side of the<br />
business. We have a great team of eight staff and a<br />
new apprentice will be a great addition looking to<br />
the future. In addition, we have around half of our<br />
four acre site we do not currently utilise and so we<br />
are looking to develop that.”<br />
This year will be the 9th time Cranswick<br />
Garden Centre has produced a display garden for<br />
the horticultural marquee at the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
Ray added: “The <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> is a very<br />
important date on our calendar. It is always a great<br />
day, even though it is a lot of hard work and the<br />
whole team enjoy being involved in the display<br />
preparation and on the day.<br />
“Each year we have a different design, but<br />
plants are always the main focus for us.<br />
“It is amazing how many people we see each<br />
year at the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> and our customers have<br />
been asking us for a while if we will be there again<br />
this year!”<br />

and an expert local service.<br />
The NFU Mutual team in <strong>Driffield</strong>.<br />
“We are proud of our<br />

Meet U3A at this<br />
year’s <strong>Show</strong><br />
The University of The<br />
Third Age (U3A) is a<br />
nationwide organisation<br />
based on local groups<br />
providing opportunities<br />
for retired and semiretired<br />
people to come<br />
together and share their<br />
interest and experience.<br />
Please note they do not<br />
study for qualifications<br />
they merely share their<br />
collective knowledge<br />
and enjoy meeting<br />
people and learning new<br />
interests.<br />
Why Third Age?<br />
This is the time when<br />
careers and (hopefully)<br />
parental responsibilities<br />
are coming to a close<br />
and you have increasing<br />
leisure time to devote to<br />
your own interests and<br />
reflect on what more you<br />
can achieve.<br />
U3As run interest<br />
groups where members<br />
can learn more about<br />
such topics as local<br />
history, archaeology,<br />
geology or languages.<br />
They also encourage<br />
creative activities<br />
such as art, drama and<br />
needlework/quilting for<br />
example.<br />
Physical wellbeing<br />
(important for older<br />
people) is encouraged<br />
and well attended,<br />
provided through<br />
activity groups for<br />
walking, dancing, table<br />
tennis, gym fitness and<br />
anything else that keeps<br />
one fit. In fact, if there<br />
is not already an interest<br />
group to provide a need<br />
members are encouraged<br />
to start one.<br />
Whatever you do, the<br />
aim is that you learn<br />
something and enjoy it.<br />
The Wolds U3A,<br />
based in <strong>Driffield</strong>, will<br />
be present at the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> on stand X356 and<br />
look forward to meeting<br />
friends old and new,<br />
and explaining in more<br />
detail the opportunities<br />
that are available.<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Busy day for James White Butchers<br />
With more than 750 hungry mouths<br />
to feed, James White expects to have<br />
a busy day ahead as he supplies his<br />
hog roast to the customers at the James<br />
Mortimer and Yorkshire Grain stand<br />
at the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> for the 5th year<br />
running.<br />
Master butcher James White, who<br />
owns James White Butchers Ltd<br />
in Hutton Cranswick, enjoys the<br />
opportunity to meet up with many of<br />
his customers at the <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
James was just 17 when he and his<br />
parents Glennis and Tony, and sister<br />
Sally, moved to the village to take over<br />
the shop and onsite abattoir.<br />
From being a young boy, James<br />
has had a keen interest in butchering<br />
having helped his dad in the family<br />
butchers business in Derbyshire.<br />
Now with 30 years’ experience<br />
behind him, James is proud of the<br />
traditional family butchers business he<br />
and his family have built and believes<br />
the quality of his products, along with<br />
excellent customer service, are the<br />
reasons behind its success.<br />
He said: “I have always been<br />
interested in the slaughtering side<br />
of the business and the reason mum<br />
and dad bought the shop in Hutton<br />
Cranswick is because it had a slaughter<br />
house onsite.<br />
“I believe in sourcing locally and<br />
knowing where the animals have come<br />
from means you are in control of what<br />
you put into your shop.<br />
“People are interested in where their<br />
food comes from and knowing that the<br />
meat we supply is from local farmers<br />
and of high quality means a lot to our<br />
customers.<br />
“I get all my beef from Raven Hill<br />
Farm in Kilham; my pigs are from Ian<br />
James White<br />
Broumpton in Brandesburton and the<br />
lambs are from various local farms.<br />
“Every part of the process is carried<br />
out here onsite from slaughtering the<br />
animals to butchery, and we make our<br />
own sausages and burgers and cure our<br />
own bacon here.<br />
“I have a great team of three full<br />
time and two part time staff. Mike<br />
Young slaughters the stock with me<br />
every Monday, Bob Mell is my righthand<br />
man and shop manager and<br />
Keith Chapman, who joined us last<br />
year. They are all experienced and<br />
knowledgeable meat tradesmen who<br />
know what butchery is all about.<br />
“I pride myself on providing the best<br />
products and service to my customers<br />
which is why they come back.”<br />
As well as providing joints for<br />
Sunday roasts, burgers and sausages<br />
for the family bbq and mince and<br />
chicken for the midweek meal, James<br />
also supplies local restaurants and<br />
hotels in the <strong>Driffield</strong> and Beverley<br />
area and is renowned for his delicious<br />
hog roasts.<br />
He added: “I will be back at the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> this year with my<br />
hog roast at the James Mortimer and<br />
Yorkshire Grain stand. Last year we<br />
provided around 750 sandwiches for<br />
the customers to the stand and so it is<br />
a busy day, but it is always good fun.<br />
“Many of the customers to the stand<br />
are also customers of mine and so it<br />
provides a good opportunity to meet<br />
up with people.<br />
“The <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> is a real<br />
focal point attracting local farmers,<br />
and people working in and around<br />
agricultural industries, as well as<br />
attracting people into the area from<br />
further afield.<br />
“It is good for the town and I am<br />
sure it will be another very successful<br />
event.”<br />

The main ring entrainment is always a<br />
popular attraction at the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> with<br />
a packed schedule throughout the day.<br />
Many visitors make a beeline for the ring to<br />
watch the fantastic displays and presentations<br />
provided by the equestrian classes.<br />
The activities kick off bright and early at around<br />
8.15am with some of the Hunter classes. There is<br />
also a very good entry this year of agricultural<br />
horses, as well as ridden classes, ponies, private<br />
driving classes and show jumping.<br />
This year for the first time at the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>,<br />
the Equine Section will see a class for ridden<br />
coloured horses, which has proved very popular.<br />
Equine section secretary Charlotte Richardson<br />
said: “We are very excited to have a new class<br />
this year in the Ridden Coloured class, and it has<br />
proved very popular with entries. I am sure it will<br />
also prove very popular with visitors to the <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
“Overall we have very healthy entries in all<br />
classes, from the open mountain and moorland<br />
traditional small breeds to the ridden cobs and<br />
ridden ponies. The Local Ridden Pony class is<br />

always popular because it has to ridden by a rider<br />
aged 16 and under and be living within a 22 mile<br />
radius of <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>ground.<br />
“People always enjoy seeing the Shires at<br />
the <strong>Show</strong> and we have shires in hand and being<br />
driven.<br />
“I am also delighted that we have the Atkinson<br />
Action Horses in the main ring, which will be a<br />
fantastic spectacle for the public and a real coup<br />
for <strong>Driffield</strong> and I am delighted that it retains the<br />
link with agriculture.”<br />
Having taken on the position as secretary of<br />
the Equine Section last year, Charlotte, who was<br />
a former steward in the main ring, is looking<br />
forward to the <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
She added: “The <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> is a fantastic<br />
family day out and because the site is contained<br />
and it all takes place over one day, visitors don’t<br />
miss anything.”<br />
Equestrian sisters Sienna and Roberta Watts,<br />
who attend Burton Agnes Primary School, are<br />
hoping to be competing at this year’s <strong>Show</strong> after<br />
traveling back from the Scottish Horse <strong>Show</strong><br />
which takes place the day before in Edinburgh.<br />
Eleven-year-old Sienna hopes to have another<br />
successful <strong>Show</strong> after she won the Mixed Height<br />
Open <strong>Show</strong> Pony class on Pennyroyal Little<br />
Pageboy last year and then went on to win the<br />
Champion Ridden Pony trophy.<br />
This year Sienna is entered for the Mixed<br />
Height Open <strong>Show</strong> Pony class and her younger<br />
sister Roberta, who is 9, will enter the First<br />
Ridden Pony class.<br />
Their mum Sharon said: “The <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong><br />
has so much history and is always a show we<br />
always like to attend.<br />
“It was a lovely moment for us last year when<br />
Sienna was awarded the Champions Trophy and<br />
hopefully we can do well again this year.”<br />
Equestrian proves a popular attraction<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Proud day for <strong>Show</strong> stalwart Chris Richardson<br />
Long-standing <strong>Driffield</strong> Agricultural<br />
Society committee member Mr Chris<br />
Richardson said he is proud and honoured<br />
to be President this year and is looking<br />
forward to the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
Having been a steward in the main ring for<br />
40 years, Mr Richardson who farms at Manor<br />
House in Brandesburton, is delighted to have<br />
the opportunity to enjoy all the exhibits and<br />
attractions on offer at the <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
He said: “I am very humbled and honoured to<br />
have been asked to be President of the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
Agricultural Society. I have been a committee<br />
member for 40 years and I was chairman in<br />
2000, and it is a great honour to be President.<br />
“I am very much looking forward to the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>. For the past 40 years I have been<br />
a steward in the main ring, which I have enjoyed,<br />
but as President I am looking forward to actually<br />
getting about and seeing all of the <strong>Show</strong>.”<br />
He added that the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> has grown<br />
and developed over the years and attracts<br />
visitors from far and wide however it still retains<br />
its agricultural heritage.<br />
He said: “When I first joined the Society in the<br />
1970s, it was mainly run by farmers, however<br />
now there is a cross section of people involved<br />
with the Society and we have a professional team<br />
in the office who co-ordinate the organisation of<br />
the Society and all of its events.<br />
“The Society has changed a lot over the years,<br />
however I believe if it had not, then the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> and the Agricultural Society itself may not<br />
still have been in existence.<br />
“The <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> is still very much an<br />
agricultural show and is an important date on<br />
the calendar for many local farmers, however it<br />
also has a broader appeal and offers something<br />
for everyone.<br />
“The <strong>Show</strong> attracts people from far and<br />
wide and it helps the local economy. It is good<br />
for <strong>Driffield</strong> and good for the East Riding as a<br />
whole.”<br />
Mr Richardson said the <strong>Show</strong> would not be<br />
possible without the hard work and dedication<br />
from a huge team of <strong>Show</strong> staff and volunteers,<br />
and the support of the local farming community<br />
and businesses.<br />
“I am looking forward to seeing all the main<br />
exhibition tents and all the stands. We are<br />
indebted to the great many exhibitors, as well<br />
as organisations and businesses who support the<br />
<strong>Show</strong> every year and without the stand holders<br />
and all the competitors there would not be a<br />
<strong>Show</strong> and I would like to thank them all,” he<br />
said.<br />
“We also have excellent stewards who are all<br />
volunteers and give up their time and without<br />
their hard work the <strong>Show</strong> would not be able to<br />
go ahead.<br />
“Finally I would like to say a big thank you to<br />
all the office staff who work terribly hard to get<br />
the <strong>Show</strong> off the ground every year.<br />
“My wife Anna and I will be spending the day<br />
with our chairman Tim Burdass and his wife<br />
Katie. Tim has been an excellent chairman for<br />
the past two years and we are looking forward<br />
to being escorted around the <strong>Show</strong> by Tim and<br />
Katie.”<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
The Livestock section is going<br />
to be highly competitive<br />
The Livestock section is always popular.<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> is a prestigious event and<br />
attracts strong competition from exhibitors<br />
in all classes of the Livestock section.<br />
The cattle, sheep, pigs and goats are always<br />
extremely popular with all visitors to the show<br />
and this year will be no exception with a thriving<br />
livestock section attracting a wealth of top quality<br />
entries in all categories.<br />
Livestock section secretary and vice chairman<br />
of the <strong>Driffield</strong> Agricultural Society, Richard<br />
Jackson, said the livestock section of the show is<br />
always popular attracting competition from longstanding<br />
exhibitors, as well as a good number of<br />
new entrants.<br />
He said: “We have a very good well-balanced<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
livestock section this year, attracting new<br />
exhibitors from quite a way off as well as our<br />
regular entrants who support the <strong>Show</strong> year after<br />
year.<br />
“This year we have one class of sheep which<br />
has attracted 17 entrants, which must be almost<br />
a record.<br />
“It is going to be a highly competitive section<br />
with strong entries across each of the classes.<br />
After the Yorkshire <strong>Show</strong>, <strong>Driffield</strong> is probably<br />
the biggest show in Yorkshire and so it is a<br />
prestigious event for exhibitors to do well at.”<br />
This year changes have been made to the sheep<br />
pens and the sheep rings which have moved to<br />
improve accessibility for the judges, competitors<br />
and the public; and to continuously improve on<br />
health and safety. This year the public will be<br />
restricted from the cattle area when the cattle are<br />
being moved for judging and for the parade.<br />
Richard added: “I am very much looking<br />
forward to what promises to be another cracking<br />
show. The <strong>Show</strong>ground looks immaculate and<br />
committee members have been doing a lot of<br />
work to help prepare for the <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
“Hopefully the weather will be kind to us and<br />
we will have another fantastic day.”<br />
The Waring family who farm at Field House<br />
Farm in Cherry Burton have been bringing their<br />
dairy cattle to the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> for many years.<br />
This year Judith Waring will be showing her<br />
Jersey cows, while her husband Peter and son<br />
James and Judith will also be showing their<br />
Holsteins.<br />
Judith said she hopes to repeat the success of<br />
last year after she took home the James Heath<br />
Memorial Trophy awarded to the Best Jersey in<br />
the show.<br />
She said: “We have definitely been coming to<br />
the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> for a great many years. We feel<br />
it is important to show the dairy cattle because a<br />
lot of people do not know the difference between<br />
beef cattle and dairy cattle and because so many<br />
dairy herds are declining we want to attend the<br />
<strong>Show</strong> and promote the dairy breeds.<br />
“We also milk the cows at the <strong>Show</strong> which<br />
always attracts a big crowd because people like<br />
to come and watch the milking and are always<br />
amazed about how much milk we get from one<br />
cow.”<br />
She added that the cows for the <strong>Show</strong> are<br />
hand-picked and are clipped and washed before<br />
travelling to <strong>Driffield</strong>. They have to be washed<br />
again before judging to ensure they look their<br />
best.<br />
“It is always nice when you win especially at<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> because it is a local show for us and<br />
there are a lot of people there who we catch up –<br />
usually only once a year at the <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
“It is a great <strong>Show</strong> and I try to find time to have<br />
a quick look around, although it would be nice<br />
one year to spend a bit more time enjoying all<br />
the <strong>Show</strong>!”<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Atkinson Action Horses a major attraction<br />
Visitors to this year’s <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> are promised a breath-taking<br />
display of tricks and stunts as East<br />
Riding’s own Atkinson Action<br />
Horses take to the main ring as the<br />
major attraction.<br />
Atkinson Action Horses, based<br />
in Eastrington, have spent the past<br />
twenty years training horses and<br />
riders for both film and TV.<br />
With recent credits from Poldark,<br />
Victoria and Peaky Blinders– it is<br />
guaranteed this elite force has at some<br />
point invaded your TV screen.<br />
Wednesday, 19th July will be time<br />
to saddle up, strap in and hold on tight<br />
– as this fearless team of stunt riders<br />
will perform their unique display at<br />
the 142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
Visitors to the <strong>Show</strong> are promised<br />
an exciting action-packed show and<br />
are advised to be prepared for ‘heart<br />
Visitors are promised a breath-taking display of tricks and stunts.<br />
in your mouth’ demonstrations of<br />
astounding acrobatics.<br />
The performance will also include<br />
a short but stunning section dedicated<br />
to the art of Liberty – displaying<br />
the seamless harmony between the<br />
horses and their on screen trainers, as<br />
well as classical dressage, battlefield<br />
techniques and thrilling fire work.<br />
Mark Atkinson, owner of Atkinson<br />
Action Horses, said: “We are<br />
delighted to be back performing at<br />
the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>. There is always<br />
a lovely atmosphere at the show and<br />
it is great to be performing at a local<br />
show.<br />
“It will be an action-packed display<br />
with lots of exciting stunts and<br />
performances for the public to enjoy.”<br />
As well as training a huge selection<br />
of horses in a variety of disciplines<br />
such as Spanish High School, airs<br />
above the ground, Liberty, trick and<br />
stunt riding, falling and jousting, the<br />
team at Atkinson Action Horses also<br />
train actors to ride in the style of the<br />
character they are playing.<br />
Mark added: “If the character is in<br />
the military, it is important they are<br />
taught how to mount and dismount<br />
correctly and in Poldark, for example,<br />
the style of riding for Aidan Turner<br />
who plays Ross is much less correct.<br />
“We teach the female actors in<br />
Poldark and Victoria to ride side<br />
saddle and for stunts and tricks we<br />
have experienced double actors.”<br />
Originally dairy farmers, Mark and<br />
his wife Jill and son Ben and daughter<br />
Lucy, have always been horse mad<br />
and made the decision to diversify<br />
away from the dairy herd to make a<br />
living from horses.<br />
After opening a riding school and<br />
running Riding for the Disabled and a<br />
livery business, a group of re-enactors<br />
came to the livery for their horses and<br />
after stating they were a rider short,<br />
Mark stood in and the business grew<br />
from there.<br />
Atkinson Action Horses have<br />
provided horses for the Sealed Knott,<br />
the English Heritage and Royal<br />
Armouries for jousting performances,<br />
and for the past seven years Atkinson<br />
Action Horses have been used for the<br />
Arundel Castle International Jousting<br />
Tournament.<br />

After months of organisation,<br />
preparation and planning, <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
Agricultural Society chief executive<br />
David Tite is looking forward to<br />
another fantastic <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
As final preparations are underway<br />
for the 142nd show, David said he was<br />
proud of the heritage of the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> and the positive role it plays in the<br />
local community attracting thousands<br />
of visitors and showcasing the best of<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> and East Yorkshire.<br />
He said the <strong>Show</strong> promises to be a<br />
fantastic day out for all the family.<br />
He said: “There is so much on offer<br />
to suit all tastes. We have the Atkinson<br />
Action Horses with us in the main ring<br />
which have featured on TV in several<br />
programmes such as Poldark. They are a<br />
really good stunt team and it should be a<br />
brilliant display.<br />
“The Activity Ring gets more and<br />
more exciting each year and is a real<br />
family fun orientated area, with Jez<br />
Avery performing his breath taking stunt<br />
show, the East Riding Engine Club will<br />
be on hand to offer a taste of what the<br />
2017 <strong>Driffield</strong> Steam & Vintage Rally<br />
has to offer. We also have the Birds of<br />
Prey and taster dog displays, which<br />
always go down really well with the<br />
crowds.<br />
“The livestock entries are solid again<br />
this year promising another great show<br />
for this section. This year we have<br />
moved the sheep section to where the<br />
old demonstration pond was.<br />
“Working in partnership with the<br />
Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, we are<br />
planning to create a dew pond in this<br />
area, giving the opportunity to look back<br />
at how we used to gather water on the<br />
Yorkshire Wolds. We will have display<br />
boards in this area explaining our plans.<br />
“Our handicraft marquee is always<br />
popular and this year Ann Bradshaw<br />
has taken ownership of this section<br />
from Mike Parker. We are really grateful<br />
to Mike for all the years of committed<br />
service he has given to the Society in<br />
making that area of the <strong>Show</strong> grow and<br />
thrive to what it is today. Ann is very<br />
excited about taking on the mantel.<br />
“Our fur and feather and horticultural<br />
marquees are always extremely busy<br />
and the rural craft demonstration area is<br />
a great opportunity to see old craftsmen<br />
at work. The fencing competition<br />
continues to grow and we have over<br />
500 trade stands, including a growing<br />
proportion of agricultural stands. I love<br />
nothing more than to hear of agricultural<br />
trade stands which have sold out at the<br />
<strong>Show</strong>.”<br />
He added that he and the <strong>Show</strong> team<br />
are always listening to feedback from<br />
visitors in order to continually improve<br />
and update the <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
“Last year we made improvements to<br />
the entrance gate which worked really<br />
well and they will be the same this year,<br />
with fast track entrance at all gates for<br />
visitors who have bought their tickets<br />
in advance. I would always recommend<br />
people buy their tickets in advance.<br />
“This year we have put extra signage<br />
in the car parks and signage to the car<br />
parks at the entrances. We will also have<br />
large vehicles parked at all entrances<br />
welcoming people onto the site, such<br />
as combine harvesters, forklifts, Rix<br />
have lent us a fuel tanker and Volvo a<br />
65 tonne bucket which will be parked on<br />
the roundabout.<br />
“We are also delighted to have<br />
worked with <strong>Driffield</strong> School & Sixth<br />
Form to allow their students to come<br />
up here for the afternoon. We will also<br />
have an area where performing arts and<br />
design students will be performing and<br />
displaying their work.”<br />
David said the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> was<br />
a real team effort and without the hard<br />
work, dedication and support from a<br />
wealth of people the <strong>Show</strong> would not be<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> Agricultural Society<br />
chief executive David Tite.<br />
the success it is.<br />
He said: “We have a fantastic team in<br />
the office and out on the grounds who do<br />
an amazing job and I am really grateful<br />
for all the effort they put in.<br />
“We also have a fantastic team of<br />
volunteers and committee members who<br />
help in the run up to the <strong>Show</strong> and on the<br />
day itself and they help to make the show<br />
the success it is. Our chairman and other<br />
members of the committee have been<br />
helping with preparing the <strong>Show</strong>ground<br />
and I would like to thank them all.<br />
“Thank you also to all or sponsors who<br />
put so much money time and equipment<br />
into the show without their support the<br />
<strong>Show</strong> would not exist.<br />
“We are proud of our heritage as an<br />
agricultural show and even as the <strong>Show</strong><br />
has grown and changed over the years<br />
the proportion of agricultural stands and<br />
exhibits has increased.<br />
“We hope people come along and<br />
have a fantastic day out and leave<br />
happy having enjoyed all the activities,<br />
entertainment and exhibits and having<br />
seen people they haven’t seen for a year.<br />
“The <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> provides a good<br />
opportunity for the farming community<br />
to come together and also provides a<br />
good business to business day for our<br />
trade exhibitors.”<br />

Rix Petroleum celebrates 70 years<br />
Rix Petroleum will set<br />
crowds swinging at <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> this year, as the family<br />
business celebrates 70 years<br />
of exhibiting.<br />
The company, which has<br />
served farmers and rural<br />
homeowners across East<br />
Yorkshire for nearly a century,<br />
will mark its 70th year at the<br />
<strong>Show</strong> with a collection of<br />
historic photos looking back<br />
through the years and a band<br />
playing classic jazz and swing<br />
songs.<br />
Rix Petroleum will also<br />
reproduce one of their own<br />
garage forecourts from the<br />
1940s, complete with classic car<br />
for visitors to admire.<br />
The forecourt, which was<br />
originally in Cloughton near<br />
Scarborough, was one of many<br />

As well as the company<br />
celebrating 70 years at the show,<br />
Rix Petroleum director, Duncan<br />
Lambert, is celebrating 30 years<br />
of attendance.<br />
Mr Lambert said: “Rix first<br />
started exhibiting at <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> in 1947, just after the<br />
war, and took a small stand. We<br />
enjoyed it so much that we’ve<br />
been back every year since, and<br />
now usually occupy the biggest<br />
stand of all.<br />
“<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> is a fantastic<br />
event to catch up with old<br />
friends, make new ones, and<br />
find out how the farming year is<br />
going.<br />
“It usually marks the start<br />
of harvest too, so it is a good<br />
time to speak to farmers and<br />
contractors and gauge their fuel<br />
needs for the months ahead,<br />
which is useful to us and them.”<br />
Mr Lambert said 30 years is<br />
a milestone in this career, but<br />
he still hopes to see many more<br />
years at <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
“I can’t believe it is 30 years<br />
this year,” he said.<br />
“That time has flown by.<br />
“Over the past three decades<br />
I’ve seen a lot of changes,<br />
mostly for the good, I have met<br />
a lot of people and made a lot<br />

national company with depots<br />
from the north of Scotland down<br />
to the south east of England,<br />
Yorkshire, particularly East<br />
Yorkshire, is our heartland.<br />
“That’s why <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> is<br />
always an event I look forward<br />
to. I don’t know if I will see<br />
another 30, but I certainly hope<br />
I’ll get to plenty more in the<br />
future.”<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
How the <strong>Show</strong> has changed<br />
and developed over the years<br />
Farming was more of a way of life than an<br />
industry up to and including the eighteenth<br />
century, however during the 1930s Farmers’<br />
Clubs began to form up and down the<br />
country to discuss new methods being<br />
brought forward.<br />
In 1851, the <strong>Driffield</strong> Farmers’ Club was<br />
formed and they held experiments with new<br />
agricultural machinery on Mr Hopper’s farm at<br />
Kelleythorpe in 1852.<br />
In 1853 the Farmers’ Club developed into the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> and East Riding Agricultural Society,<br />
but when they invited subscriptions to run an<br />
Agricultural <strong>Show</strong>, they found the greatest<br />
indifference amongst the people of <strong>Driffield</strong>, and<br />
many refused to subscribe.<br />
However, in 1854 the first <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> was<br />
held and an account of the show was reported in<br />
the Farmer’s Magazine of the period:<br />
‘The <strong>Driffield</strong> Agricultural Society held its<br />
first annual exhibition of farm stock, poultry,<br />
horses and implements in a field within a short<br />
distance of the town, on Wednesday 12th July,<br />
where it was clearly demonstrated that union is<br />
the strength of the farmer when spiritedly put into<br />
action, without looking for, or feeling that the<br />
great and rich are indispensable to the existence<br />
of agricultural societies, however advantageous<br />
their pecuniary aid and patronage may be to<br />
all societies whose object is the furtherance of<br />
improvement and social progress.<br />
‘The quantity and quality of cattle, sheep,<br />

pigs, poultry, horses and implements exhibited<br />
far surpassed the most sanguine expectations of<br />
the spirited originators of this society, and the<br />
large assembly of noblemen, clergy, gentlemen,<br />
farmers and labourers who visited the show.”<br />
In 1855 the second <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> was held on<br />
1st August in two fields belonging to Mr Storey of<br />
the Black Swan on the west side of town at which<br />
the Bridlington Quay Sax-tuba band entertained<br />
the visitors.<br />
The third show in 1856 saw 7,000 people<br />
admitted, thanks to a glorious day.<br />
In 1861 the 8th show was held on 27 July in<br />
two fields off Shady Lane (now Victoria Road).<br />
It was attended by 7-8.000 people and £240 was<br />
taken at the ticket house. The town was decorated<br />
with bunting, there were stalls in the Market<br />
Place, swings, roundabouts and shooting galleries<br />
on Cross Hill and photographers in the streets.<br />
In 1867, the 14th show, there was a change of<br />
venue and day. The show was held on Friday 27<br />
July. The new ground consisted of four fields on<br />
Beverley Lane (now St John’s Road).<br />
In 1869 there was no show due to foot and<br />
mouth disease and in 1875 there was no <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> due to the Yorkshire <strong>Show</strong> being held at<br />
Elmswell.<br />
The agricultural depression of the late 1870s<br />
took its toll on entries and visitor numbers to<br />
the show. In 1881 the show moved to a new site<br />
behind the Board School on Wansford Road<br />
corner. In 1883 the Royal and the Great Yorkshire<br />
combined to hold their shows at York and no<br />
The <strong>Show</strong> is a huge hit for all ages.<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> was held.<br />
1884 saw the show back on Beverley Road.<br />
1888 marked the visit of the Prince of Wales to<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> on 20 July. A Triumphal Arch was<br />
built over Middle Street and flags and bunting<br />
were out.<br />
In 1893 a ladies’ cloakroom was provided at<br />
the show for the first time!<br />
In 1899 the <strong>Driffield</strong> Farmers’ Club dissolved<br />
and due to the agricultural depression the heart<br />
was going out of farming as prosperity moved<br />
to towns. The committee worked hard to keep<br />
the show going despite low attendance and poor<br />
finances.<br />
In 1911 St John Ambulance attended the show<br />
for the first time and in 1913 the <strong>Driffield</strong> and East<br />
Riding Agricultural Society became the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
Agricultural Society.<br />
There was no show in 1915-19 due to the First<br />
World War. It was next held in 1920 in Spencer’s<br />
Field.<br />
In 1926 the claim that <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> was<br />
the largest one-day show in the country was<br />
first made. In 1927 the Agricultural Society in<br />
conjunction with the Cricket Club put on evening<br />
sports, which were very popular. In 1930 the<br />
Yorkshire <strong>Show</strong> was held at Hull and no <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> was held.<br />
No shows were held from 1931 until 1937 due<br />
to the Great Depression and from 1940 until 1945<br />
due to the Second World War. In 1946, the first<br />
show after the war was moved to Mr Shouler’s<br />
fields on Bridlington Road<br />
In 1949, the show was beginning to show signs<br />
of its old glory. There were 51 trade stands, the<br />
Hessle British Legion Band played and “George<br />
the Giant” the largest bullock in the world was<br />
an attraction.<br />
The new showground at Kelleythorpe was<br />
opened by Lord Halifax on 29 July 1953. During<br />
the mid-1950s attendance hit a record of 14,000.<br />
In 1960 a member’s tent and enclosure was<br />
provided and by 1965 a member’s pavilion was<br />
built.<br />
In 1973 the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> celebrated its<br />
centenary year with Lord Halifax as president<br />
and with the reintroduction of agricultural horses.<br />
New sponsor for<br />
Heavy Horse Section<br />
One of Yorkshire and the<br />
Humber’s leading independent<br />
accountancy firms is to sponsor<br />
the Heavy Horse Section, and<br />
the Heavy Horse Stabling and<br />
Demonstration Area, at the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> 2017.<br />
The Heavy Horses have<br />
always been an important part<br />
of the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>, the gentle<br />
giants remain a favourite with<br />
the wide spectrum of visitors that<br />
come to the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
A more recent introduction to<br />
the Heavy Horse section is, the<br />
inclusion of the Heavy Horse<br />
Stabling and Demonstration<br />
Area. The stabling was<br />
initially introduced as a result<br />
of exhibitors travelling large<br />
numbers of miles to the attend<br />
the <strong>Show</strong>, this allows an area<br />
where visitors can have the rare<br />
opportunity, to see the giants at<br />
close range being groomed and<br />
prepared by their owners ready<br />
for showing.<br />
Hull-based Smailes Goldie<br />

Heavy Horse Section, as well as<br />

From hand carved wooden products to<br />
beekeeping and honey making and from<br />
willow crafts to rope making, there is a<br />
wealth of traditional hand crafts on display<br />
in the Rural Craft Demonstration area at the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
With many of these artisan trades dying out,<br />
the <strong>Driffield</strong> Agricultural Society believes it is<br />
important to educate and inform people about<br />
these traditional rural crafts.<br />
Visitors to this area of the <strong>Show</strong>, situated in the<br />
tranquil surroundings of the <strong>Show</strong>ground down<br />
by the river, will have the chance to see experts at<br />
work in their chosen trade and in some cases even<br />
have a go themselves!<br />
The craftsmen and women – some of who are<br />
the last remaining few practicing their trade – will<br />
demonstrate their skills throughout the day and<br />
will be on hand to answer any questions from the<br />
crowds of fascinated onlookers.<br />
Among those demonstrating this year are Mark<br />
the Blacksmith; Eddie from Blyth Willow, who<br />

said: “The craftsmen and women at this year’s<br />
<strong>Show</strong> have come from all over the country to<br />
demonstrate their hand crafts and the products<br />
they make and they will be working throughout<br />
the day to demonstrate their trade for the visitors<br />
of the <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
“Sadly many of these traditional crafts and<br />
trades are dying out and it is important that people,<br />
especially young people have the opportunity to<br />
see a craft that they wouldn’t normally see.<br />
“It is important for people to know how these<br />
traditional crafts are carried out and see the<br />
materials which go into making the finished<br />
products.<br />
“All of our demonstrators will be more than<br />
happy to chat to people about their trade and some<br />
offer the opportunity for people to have a go at the<br />
craft for themselves.<br />
“It is a very popular part of the <strong>Show</strong> and we<br />
are set in a nice quiet part of the <strong>Show</strong>ground,<br />
so people can come along and sit in a peaceful<br />
environment and watch these incredibly talented<br />
crafts men and women at work.”<br />

prove just as successful at the<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Always a busy day in the Fur and Feather marquee<br />
A firm favourite with visitors to the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> is always the Fur<br />
and Feather marquee with crowds<br />
flocking to the area to view the<br />
rabbits, guinea pigs, poultry and<br />
pigeons on display.<br />
Fur section secretary Mrs Carol<br />
Moore, from Nafferton, has been in the<br />
role for almost 25 years and said the<br />
<strong>Show</strong> has grown over the years, but<br />
the Fur and Feather section remains<br />
popular.<br />
She said: “I always enjoy the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong>. There is so much to see and so<br />
much going on. It gets bigger and better<br />
each year – although I don’t get to see a<br />
lot of it on the day because I have a full<br />
day in the marquee!<br />
“There is always a lot of interest in<br />
our section of the <strong>Show</strong> and it is always<br />
lovely to see well exhibited animals. We<br />
have some exhibitors who keep coming<br />
back to the show – in fact some of them<br />
have been coming as long as I have!<br />
“I keep rabbits myself, I have 35, and<br />
the show is always a good time to catch<br />
up with friends.”<br />
The Fur section features classes for<br />
rabbits and cavies (guinea pigs). They<br />
include Fancy classes, Rex classes and<br />
Fur classes. Last year saw over 200<br />
rabbits and 100 cavies entered into the<br />
various classes.<br />
The Feather section includes classes<br />
for Poultry and Pigeons, including<br />
water fowl, large poultry, bantams, eggs<br />
and fancy pigeons and show racers.<br />
Carol added: “It is always a busy<br />
day and there is lots to do from writing<br />
out the prize cards to filling out the<br />
paperwork for the British Rabbit<br />
Council and writing <strong>Show</strong> reports.<br />
“I have such a lot of help on the day<br />
from all of our fabulous volunteers. The<br />
show wouldn’t be able to run without<br />
the help of all these volunteers. I would<br />
like to give a special mention to Sheila<br />
Cornforth who is my right hand woman<br />
on the day and helps me with all the<br />
paperwork.”<br />
Feather section secretary Paul<br />
Littlewood said entries are looking<br />
strong and he is looking forward to<br />
another good event.<br />
He said: “The <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> is one<br />
of the biggest one day agricultural<br />
shows in the country and it attracts<br />
exhibitors from far and wide.<br />
“The Fur and Feather marquee is<br />
always full and for us, it provides<br />
a shop window for our hobby. The<br />
general public can see what we do and<br />
we might even get some new members,<br />
we are always happy to answer any<br />
questions members of the public have<br />
about the livestock.<br />
“Now I am looking forward to some<br />
good weather and another great <strong>Show</strong>.”<br />
The Fur and Feather marquee is always fun.<br />

Rally committee members - Leah Proctor, Annabel Prescott, Graham Stuart MP, Steve Butler (Rally chairman),<br />
Sir Greg Knight MP, Andrew Smith and Zoe Anderson at this year’s Young Farmers Rally.<br />
Members of <strong>Driffield</strong> YFC.<br />
Young Farmers Club thriving<br />
with over 450 members<br />
With over 450 members, the East<br />
Riding of Yorkshire Federation<br />
of Young Farmers Club (YFC) is<br />
a thriving organisation for young<br />
people.<br />
You don’t have to be a farmer to<br />
be a young farmer, although it is dedicated<br />
to young people who have an<br />
appreciation for agriculture and enjoy<br />
rural life.<br />
East Riding YFC is one of the<br />
county federations that makes up the<br />
National Federation of Young Farmers<br />
(NFYFC) which is one of the largest<br />
rural youth organisations in the UK.<br />
YFC is led by young people, for<br />
young people and provides anyone<br />
aged 10-26 with an opportunity to<br />
learn new skills, work with their local<br />
communities, meet lifelong friends<br />
and even travel abroad!<br />
Members of the East Riding YFC<br />
are looking forward to attending the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> to share information<br />
about what goes on in the 15 local<br />
clubs which make up the East Riding<br />
YFC.<br />
Jack Wainwright, County Junior<br />
Chairman, said: “Currently in East<br />
Riding YFC, we have over 450 members<br />
within our 15 active clubs. Each<br />
club is run by its members, and so<br />
meetings are organised to suit its member’s<br />
interests. Clubs generally meet<br />
on a weekly basis, and the meetings<br />
Bridlington YFC members pose for a photo with Conservative Party MPs Sir Greg Knight (East Yorkshire) and Graham Stuart (Beverley and<br />
Holderness) at this May’s Young Farmers Rally.<br />
will vary from having a guest speaker,<br />
going on visits, or taking part in fun<br />
activities and competitions.<br />
“We have a committee who has<br />
worked hard to organise our stand at<br />
the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>, we will have lots of<br />
games and fun activities, Super Moo<br />
will be making an appearance and<br />
at 1pm we will be making a cheque<br />
presentation to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance,<br />
R.A.B.I and Teenage Cancer<br />
Trust after raising money with fundraising<br />
activities throughout the year.<br />
We will also have a raffle at the stand<br />
in aid of the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.<br />
“We would love people to come<br />
along and join in with the fun and find<br />
out more about what we do. As well<br />
as the social side of the clubs, we also<br />
take part in fundraising, we hold an annual<br />
sports day and take part in public<br />
speaking, to name just a few activities.<br />
“We look forward to seeing you on<br />
the day.”<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
New handicraft secretary looking forward to her first year<br />
New handicraft section secretary<br />
Ann Bradshaw is looking forward<br />
to her first year in the role and<br />
has thanked all those who have<br />
supported her – especially<br />
outgoing secretary Mike Parker,<br />
who will be on hand this year to<br />
ensure a smooth transition.<br />
Ann admits that she had no idea<br />
the amount of hard work that goes<br />
on behind the scenes in pulling the<br />
<strong>Show</strong> together, but now she is looking<br />
forward to a successful show as<br />
secretary of the section which receives<br />
the largest amount of entries.<br />
Ann said: “The handicraft section<br />
is always very well supported and<br />
extremely popular. Last year we had<br />
over 3,000 entries and in one class<br />
alone for children’s paintings we had<br />
219 entries!!!<br />
“All of the entries are staged, judged,<br />
viewed and taken down all within a 24<br />
hour period and so it is extremely busy<br />
and we are very fortunate to have a<br />
staff of around 80 judges and stewards<br />
who are all volunteers and give up<br />
their time and lend their expertise to<br />
making the day run so smoothly.”<br />
The Handicraft section covers<br />
children’s classes including<br />
handwriting, craft and artwork and<br />
cookery and the adult classes covering,<br />
amongst others, cookery and baking,<br />
handicrafts and photography.<br />
Ann sad: “Judging takes place at<br />
9.30am and the marquee is back open<br />
to the public by 12 noon. Every entry<br />
is studied and given their due attention<br />
before the prize cards are awarded and<br />
to do that for all those entries is why<br />
we need so many judges.”<br />
Ann said the large range of classes<br />
always attract a good level of entries<br />
from talented exhibitors.<br />
“The handicraft section brings<br />
the whole town together, from the<br />
Brothers Kenny and Robert with their awards at last year’s show.<br />
paintings and handwriting from the<br />
schoolchildren to the bakery and<br />
traditional handicrafts from some of<br />
our more mature exhibitors.<br />
“Last year we had an incredible<br />
display of sixth form artwork from<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> School and Sixth Form, and<br />
we are always well supported by the<br />
local schools.<br />
“This year we have an extra bay<br />
in the marquee providing an extra 20<br />
feet of space, which will allow us to<br />
improve the display of our exhibits.”<br />
Ann, who moved to <strong>Driffield</strong> in the<br />
1980s, became aware of the position<br />
as handicraft section secretary after<br />
working with Mike’s wife Edna on the<br />
talking newspaper.<br />
Ann said: “Edna said Mike was<br />
looking for somebody to take over the<br />
role and she said ‘you don’t flap Ann<br />
you would be good for the role’, and<br />
the rest is history.<br />
“I had no idea what I was letting<br />
myself in for, but I have had great fun<br />
getting to know everyone involved.<br />
“I am looking forward to this year’s<br />
<strong>Show</strong>, I hope I will do everyone proud<br />
and I have had some fantastic support<br />
from Mike and whole <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong><br />
team.”<br />
Mike, whose first involvement with<br />
the ever popular handicraft section<br />
of the show began in 1991 when he<br />
became a judge for the children’s<br />
section, wished Ann well in her new<br />
role. He said: “We have been working<br />
on transferring all the material across<br />
for the past year and Ann has really<br />
got to grips with it all. I have every<br />
confidence that she will do well in the<br />
role and I wish her all the best.”<br />

Organisers of Yorkshire’s greatest one-day show are<br />
once encouraging visitors to go green and use public<br />
transport. The 142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> Agricultural <strong>Show</strong> will be<br />
held on Wednesday 19th July and people are being urged<br />
to travel to the show by bus, rail and cycle.<br />
A free shuttle bus will be provided between <strong>Driffield</strong> Town<br />
Centre and the <strong>Show</strong>ground operating every 20 minutes.<br />
The Shuttle bus connects at <strong>Driffield</strong> Railway Station and as<br />
a further incentive, anyone who travels to the <strong>Show</strong> by train<br />
receives £1 discount off the <strong>Show</strong>’s admission. Simply show<br />
your ticket at the <strong>Show</strong>ground when purchasing your ticket on<br />
the gate.<br />
The discount is also available to people who use the regular<br />
East Yorkshire Motor Services routes which run throughout the<br />
region and bus travellers can also take advantage of the bus<br />
stand directly outside the <strong>Show</strong>ground.<br />
David Tite, Chief Executive, said: “We are delighted to<br />
be able to once again offer this fantastic incentive for people<br />
wishing to choose to travel to the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> by Public<br />
Transport.<br />
“This scheme will be entering its fourth year and each year<br />
we have seen the number of people taking advantage of this<br />
facility increasing, which indicates to us that we are meeting the<br />
demand of our visitors for sustainable transport alternatives.”<br />
This initiative is being supported by East Yorkshire<br />
Motor Services (EYMS), First Hull Trains and City of Hull<br />
Environment Forum.<br />
The bus will run every 20 minutes throughout the day, starting<br />
from George Street (opposite Tesco), turning right into Middle<br />
Street South, stopping by the old Bus Depot (also the stop for<br />
the Railway Station), then along Beverley Road, turning round<br />
to alight passengers outside the <strong>Show</strong>ground entrance No 2 (by<br />
Armstrong Massey).<br />
More than 2,000 visitors used the shuttle bus last year, with<br />
hundreds using the regular bus service and the train, coming<br />
into <strong>Driffield</strong> from the wider Yorkshire region.<br />
Visitors choosing to cycle to <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> can pedal in<br />
safety from the town centre using the new ‘safe cycle route’,<br />
and then store their bikes in the new bicycle racks sited just<br />
inside Gate No 2 on the <strong>Show</strong>ground. These bike racks were<br />
introduced a number of years ago as a direct response to<br />
requests made by <strong>Show</strong> visitors.<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Preparation is key to <strong>Show</strong>’s success<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> day is the<br />
pinnacle of a year of preparation,<br />
organisation and hard work by<br />
a dedicated team of loyal and<br />
passionate people.<br />
Lead by David Tite, chief executive<br />
officer, the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> team<br />
consists of Cheryl Lynch, Society<br />
manager; Matt Jackman-Bakes, events<br />
manager; Elaine Thompson, accounts<br />
manager and Nicola Brown, rentals<br />
manager, in the <strong>Show</strong> office, who<br />
ensure that everything is organised and<br />
in place for the day and that the <strong>Show</strong><br />
runs smoothly and according to plan.<br />
<strong>Show</strong>ground staff Jonny Blakeston<br />
and Frank O’Neil, who during the<br />
show season are ably supported by<br />
Keith Harrison, Mike Phillips, David<br />
Lawton, Tom Padgett, and Michael<br />
Hayes, ensure the grounds are<br />
prepared and ready for the day and all<br />
The <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> team, lead by David Tite (front centre).<br />
maintenance is up to date.<br />
Organisation of the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong><br />
is a 365-day process. The planning<br />
for the next <strong>Show</strong> begins almost<br />
immediately after the last.<br />
Cheryl Lynch explained the process.<br />
She said: “Planning begins almost<br />
immediately after the show and even<br />
on the day of the show itself we are<br />
approached by people who ask how<br />
they can be involved the next year.<br />
“By Christmas all the applications<br />
for the trade stands have gone out and<br />
all the major contracts such as those<br />
for catering and security are in place.<br />
“Early into the new year the<br />
entertainment for the main ring will be<br />
organised and our sponsors will be in<br />
place.<br />
“Sponsorship plays a very important<br />
role in the show because it allows us<br />
to maintain the high standards that our<br />
visitors have come to expect.<br />
“The deadline for applications for<br />
trade stands is the end of January.<br />
This year we have over 500 trade<br />
stands ranging from 3m to 40m and<br />
catering for all tastes - ensuring there<br />
is something for everyone.”<br />
The months leading up to the <strong>Show</strong><br />
are all about the planning and the<br />
preparation for the day itself and devil<br />
is in the detail – therefore no stone<br />
is left unturned. It is this preparation<br />
which makes the <strong>Show</strong> the success<br />
it is. On the day itself, the <strong>Show</strong><br />
office is a hive of activity, ensuring<br />
everything runs smoothly, answering<br />
any questions, resolving any issues<br />
and organising the 100 plus volunteers<br />
and stewards.<br />
Cheryl said: “We have radio contact<br />
with section heads and stewards<br />
around the <strong>Show</strong>ground and so we can<br />
respond to any queries or issues that<br />
may arise throughout the day.<br />
“It is a real team effort by everyone<br />
involved and all the hard work which<br />
leads up to the day and on the day of<br />
the <strong>Show</strong> itself is all worthwhile when<br />
you see it all come together.<br />
“After the <strong>Show</strong> we have a day or<br />
two to catch our breath before it starts<br />
again for the following year!”<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Financial support for farmers<br />
in hardship from the R.A.B.I<br />
Providing financial support for<br />
farmers facing financial difficulties<br />
since 1860, the Royal Agricultural<br />
Benevolent Institution (R.A.B.I)<br />
will be in attendance at the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> to raise awareness<br />
of the help they can offer.<br />
Did you know?<br />
The biggest attendance<br />
at the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> was<br />
31,196 people, achieved<br />
in 2009.<br />
R.A.B.I is a charity and hopes to<br />
change lives for the better by offering<br />
financial support to farming people in<br />
hardship of all ages.<br />
Last year £2million was given out to<br />
people in agriculture in England and<br />
Wales, with £200,000 being given to<br />
the farming community in Yorkshire.<br />
For working farmers suffering<br />
hardship due to an unforeseen crisis,<br />
grants can be paid towards funding<br />
relief workers, clearing domestic<br />
utility bills or buying essential white<br />
goods.<br />
For retired and/or disabled people,<br />
R.A.B.I can provide regular living<br />
allowances, as well as one-off grants<br />
for items such as disability equipment.<br />
The charity’s work is largely funded<br />
by donations and money generated<br />
at events organised by committees of<br />
volunteers.<br />
Last month a charity golf day was<br />
organised at <strong>Driffield</strong> Golf Club by<br />
R.A.B.I’s East Yorkshire committee<br />
and supported by forage production<br />
company, Biotal, which raised more<br />
than £5,000 for the charity.<br />
The winning team came from<br />
Bradbury & Co, who scored a<br />
creditable 92 Stableford points, three<br />
more than runners-up Crawford &<br />
Co. Anna Richardson led the winning<br />
ladies’ team, who carded 76 points.<br />
The victors were presented with the<br />
Lamplough Shield by Derek and<br />
Mary Lamplough who set up this<br />
annual event. Derek and Mary are long<br />
established supporters of R.A.B.I’s<br />
East Yorkshire committee.<br />
Members of R.A.B.I will be at the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> to raise awareness of<br />
the charity and to offer information<br />
and advice about the type of help they<br />
can offer.<br />
Rob Harris from the charity said:<br />
“Farming people are proud and it can<br />
be very difficult for people to accept<br />
they need help and so it is important<br />
we are able to spend time talking to<br />
people about what we can offer.<br />
“We provide both short-term and<br />
long-term support to people and every<br />
case is different and the help we offer is<br />
wide ranging. In additional to financial<br />
support, we may be able to signpost<br />
people to other services or assist<br />
people with claiming benefits or filling<br />
in forms.”<br />
For more information please call<br />
R.A.B.I’s confidential Freephone<br />
helpline 0808 281 9490 and you will<br />
be put through to a member of their<br />
welfare team, based in Oxford.<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Chairman looking forward to his second year in role<br />
With a successful first year<br />
as chairman of the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
Agricultural Society under his<br />
belt, Tim Burdass is looking<br />
forward to his second <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> in the role and praised the<br />
hard work of the <strong>Show</strong>ground<br />
staff in organising another<br />
superb event.<br />
He added that with record<br />
numbers in some livestock classes,<br />
more than 500 trade stands and<br />
top quality entertainment, the<br />
142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> should<br />
attract huge crowds.<br />
Mr Burdass, who farms at<br />
Kilham, has attended the show<br />
for many years and first gained<br />
a hands-on role when he began<br />
stewarding on the cattle lines<br />
in the early 1990s. He became<br />
involved with the committee<br />
through his late father-in-law<br />
David Stubbings who was an exchairman<br />
and president, and after<br />
two years as vice chairman, Mr<br />
Burdass took over as chairman in<br />
late 2015.<br />
He said: “We had a superb day<br />
last year, it was a very enjoyable<br />
<strong>Show</strong> and as my first as chairman<br />
I thought it would take some<br />
beating.<br />
“But I am very much looking<br />
forward to this year’s show,<br />
we have made some further<br />
improvements to the entrance<br />
gates and to parking which should<br />
improve the flow of people into<br />
the <strong>Show</strong>ground at peak times.<br />
“We have something for<br />
everyone at this year’s <strong>Show</strong> -<br />
whether you are five or 85. I am<br />
looking forward to the livestock<br />
section with record numbers in<br />
some of the classes. We have<br />
more than 500 trade stands,<br />
with the major agricultural<br />
stands displaying some quality<br />
machinery.<br />
“I am looking forward to<br />
seeing everybody there again<br />
this year and hopefully we will<br />
have big crowds. I believe that<br />
for the amount of activities,<br />
entertainment and wealth of<br />
things to see and do, the ticket<br />
price offers great value for<br />
money.”<br />
Mr Burdass believes the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> has an important<br />
role to play in educating and<br />
informing people about farming<br />
and food production.<br />
He said: “The <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
Agricultural Society is very<br />
keen to educate and inform the<br />
community about farming and<br />
food production. As such the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> is a very important<br />
source of information, showing<br />
people where and how their food<br />
is produced and what technology<br />
goes into producing the food.<br />
“The <strong>Show</strong>ground is looking<br />
better than ever this year and with<br />
the investment in new facilities<br />
such as the toilet and shower<br />
blocks we have been able to<br />
welcome even more events and<br />
attractions.<br />
“I am looking forward to a<br />
superb <strong>Show</strong>, such a lot of hard<br />
work has been made by the whole<br />
team in the <strong>Show</strong>ground office to<br />
make this another fanatic year.<br />
“I am also looking forward<br />
to escorting our President Chris<br />
Richardson and his wife around<br />
the <strong>Show</strong> and hope for another<br />
lovely day.”<br />

Craft and art activities<br />
for the whole family<br />
Offering fun-filled activities for children and families, Kirsty<br />
Hickson from the Creation Station will make a welcome return<br />
to the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
Kirsty is running activities throughout the day for children<br />
and hopes to provide an area where parents and children can<br />
get together and have a go at a range of craft and art activities<br />
themed around the <strong>Show</strong> day.<br />
Kirsty said: “I will be providing a range of crafts to suit<br />
children of all ages, which will include themed noodle doodle<br />
pictures, clay creations, hand print farm animal puppets, a stay<br />
and play Play Doh area and hopefully a sensory play activity,<br />
again farm-based, for the very young children or anyone who<br />
would like a go.<br />
“The activities are all free of charge and the children will be<br />
able to take their creations home on the day as a memory of<br />
their day out.<br />
“I will also have a range of craft packs that can be purchased<br />
to keep the children busy over the summer holidays and I will<br />
be running some offers on the day for my sessions and parties,<br />
so it will be a great chance for parents to grab themselves a<br />
bargain. There will also be a crafty lucky dip at a small charge.<br />
“The area is always popular with families and we are always<br />
busy and it is a great way for parents to give children a quick<br />
break from the hustle and bustle of the <strong>Show</strong> and allow them to<br />
have some fun too.”<br />
Kirsty is also hoping to provide a secluded area where babies<br />
can be changed and fed and will be the point of contact for any<br />
lost children.<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Proposed £15 million investment<br />
to create 25 new local jobs<br />
Residents in Kirkburn were given<br />
the opportunity to view plans for<br />
a pioneering pea processing and<br />
freezing plant at an open event last<br />
week with the proposed £15 million<br />
investment from two local businesses<br />
set to create 25 new jobs in the area.<br />
Swaythorpe Growers, a partnership<br />
of over 40 family farms across the<br />
Yorkshire Wolds and the Vale of York that<br />
produce vining peas and retail under the<br />
Yorkshire Peas brand, has joined forces<br />
with fellow local firm GWE Biogas to<br />
apply for planning permission for the<br />
facility immediately next to their biogas<br />
plant in Kirkburn. The new business will<br />
trade under the name Yorkshire Greens.<br />
The partnership will see the new<br />
site fuelled by the renewable energy<br />
produced by GWE Biogas, who will<br />
also oversee the process of the vegetable<br />
waste water from the plant, which will<br />
then be converted into further renewable<br />
energy.<br />
The new business aims to be one of<br />
the country’s first carbon neutral food<br />
factories and the waste re-used will save<br />
approximately 25,000 tonnes of food<br />
waste that would otherwise have to be<br />
imported into the existing GWE Biogas<br />
plant, therefore, significantly reducing<br />
the number of lorries accessing the<br />
biogas plant.<br />
Speaking during the open event,<br />
which was held at Kirkburn Village<br />
Hall on Tuesday 4th July, Director of<br />
GWE Biogas, Tom Megginson, said<br />
the proposed plant will be a beneficial<br />
investment for all concerned.<br />
“Currently, Yorkshire Peas grow over<br />
8,500 tonnes of peas on the Yorkshire<br />
Wolds, an area that is one of the best<br />
places in Europe to grow peas due to<br />
its maritime climate and structure,” said<br />
Tom.<br />
“The peas are then picked from the<br />
fields, before they are sent to a factory<br />
to be frozen within 150 minutes of being<br />
picked.<br />
“It is vital that they are processed<br />
within this time frame to maintain their<br />
quality and taste.<br />
“Yorkshire Peas’ current processing<br />
facility is situated outside the growing<br />
area but the proposed new site is going<br />
to be placed right in the middle of the<br />
growing zone.<br />
“<strong>Driffield</strong> was identified as the ideal<br />
site, but places such as Kelleythorpe had<br />
to be discounted as there was not enough<br />
electricity available or enough space to<br />
get rid of any waste water.<br />
“Under the plans, GWE Biogas will<br />
produce enough electricity to power the<br />
site.<br />
“This will result in a significant<br />
reduction in energy costs and will see all<br />
parties benefit.<br />
“The peas sold in the shops will be a<br />
true green pea giving it a unique selling<br />
point.<br />
“During the manufacturing process,<br />
we will be taking freshwater and other<br />
waste products and re-using them, which<br />
will take 25,000 tonnes per year off the<br />
roads.<br />
“Also, any waste heat from GWE’s<br />
site will be sent to the factory to be used<br />
throughout the process.<br />
“The synergy of the partnership is<br />
power, waste water and heat.”<br />
As well as proving beneficial to<br />
the businesses and the environment,<br />
25 new employees across both firms<br />
will also reap the rewards from the<br />
new factory and job enquiries have<br />
already been submitted by a number<br />
of interested parties.<br />
“The proposed factory, which<br />
is part of £15 million investment,<br />
will create 25 full-time positions<br />
providing year-round work,”<br />
continued Tom.<br />
“These will be good-quality jobs<br />
which are going to be needed in the<br />
area, especially with lots of new<br />
housing developments set to be<br />
built.<br />
“We have already had two people<br />
enquire about jobs this evening<br />
and we shall be collaborating with<br />
East Riding of Yorkshire Council<br />
(ERYC) to hold recruitment open<br />
days.”<br />
Planning permission was<br />
submitted to ERYC on Wednesday<br />
10th May for the development<br />
which will have 162,352 sq ft of<br />
new industrial floorspace and the<br />
service yard for the building would<br />
be 31,484 sq ft.<br />
The car park will provide 28<br />
spaces and the surface water/rain<br />
collection pond would be 41,850 sq<br />
ft in size.<br />
Two waste water storage ponds<br />
would also be created covering<br />
an area of 51,500 sq ft, while the<br />
associated service area extends to<br />
64,583 sq ft.<br />
No date has been set for a decision<br />
by ERYC, however concerns have<br />
been raised regarding site drainage<br />
and great crested newts by the<br />
Lead Local Flood Authority and<br />
the Nature Conservation Officer<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Supporting the <strong>Show</strong><br />
for over 40 years<br />
Armstrong Massey have had the<br />
pleasure of supporting the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> for over 40 years.<br />
As a result of their long association<br />
with the 4x4 market, in particular<br />
the Land Rover brand, they enjoy<br />
an excellent relationship with the<br />
agricultural community.<br />
Andy Maddock from Armstrong<br />
Massey said: “If you were to ask<br />
what the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> day meant<br />
to us, it would be all about renewing<br />
old acquaintances, over a cup of<br />
tea, cold beer or glass of wine and<br />
enjoying a bite, usually supplied by the<br />
Sunderlandwick Farm Shop.<br />
“We ordinarily display a selection of<br />
our stock and regularly sell a number<br />
of cars as a result. Our priority though<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Ready… set…combine!<br />
It’s that time of year again already; <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
<strong>Show</strong> is here, the first of the combines are<br />
beginning to roll and before various farmers<br />
try telling you in the beer tent that their<br />
barley has ‘yielded five tonne to the acre’, I<br />
thought I would begin with what I have seen<br />
of this year’s crop so far.<br />
Based on online news reports from further<br />
south, I think it is safe to say at this stage that<br />
many of the six row feed varieties have generally<br />
disappointed as what growers have gained in<br />
yield, they have lost in specific weight.<br />
However, the majority of both the six and two<br />
row samples seen locally have met the required<br />
feed specification and although we haven’t seen<br />
any record breaking crops just yet, yields are<br />
definitely encouraging, particularly given the<br />
extremity of the weather earlier this summer.<br />
Further south I believe it is very much the<br />
same and following on from last year’s generally<br />
disappointing winter barley crop, most are<br />
generally pleased with output so far.<br />
Harvesting of OSR should hopefully be<br />
underway by now whilst winter wheat crops<br />
remain a fortnight off being fit.<br />
Further afield, France and Spain have begun<br />
combining some ‘rather pleasing’ winter wheat<br />
crops although it remains early days yet. The<br />
latest production forecast for the European Union<br />
is estimated at 151 million tonnes, a six million<br />
tonne increase on last year’s total output.<br />
New crop feed wheat values are currently<br />
trading in the £140.00/T’s ex-farm for collection<br />
off the farm after harvest. Feed barley is trading<br />
around £115.00/T ex-farm.<br />
On <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> day last year, Anderson Grain<br />
Marketing were offering growers £115.00/T exfarm<br />
for the equivalent wheat, whilst feed barley<br />
was struggling to make £100.00/T ex-farm.<br />
But what could we expect moving forward?<br />
With regard to global production, the world<br />
will produce an estimated 739 million tonnes<br />
After Mr Atkinson combined his barley this<br />
pictures shows the barley being collected<br />
the next morning.<br />
Did you know?<br />
The <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>ground at<br />
Kelleythorpe was opened by<br />
Lord Halifax on 29 July 1953.<br />
of wheat throughout the course of the next 12<br />
months; the UK wheat crop will account for less<br />
than 2% of this figure. Understanding the bigger<br />
picture is therefore key to understanding ongoing<br />
market trends.<br />
The recent firmness in the wheat market is<br />
attributed to weather patterns over in the US;<br />
the wheat acreage there is already small and the<br />
recent high temperatures have threatened the<br />
crops yield potential. European weather patterns<br />
have also impacted the market over recent weeks<br />
as volatile weather falls on an already vulnerable<br />
crop following a mild winter.<br />
Regardless, the above fundamentals are not<br />
the only thing adding influence to the market;<br />
global political changes, fluctuating currencies<br />
and of course the ongoing Brexit negotiations can<br />
soon turn the market on its head. There will be<br />
an awful lot to consider before making any long<br />
term commitments this season.<br />
Thank you once again for reading and I hope<br />
you have a fantastic day at the show. I’m sure<br />
many of you are itching to get on with some<br />
combining now, bring on harvest 2017.<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Fun, fun, fun this year for the<br />
award-winning estate agents<br />
Award-winning <strong>Driffield</strong> estate agents<br />
Woolley & Parks are delighted to be<br />
sponsoring the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> for a third<br />
year and are looking forward to attending the<br />
<strong>Show</strong> to build new relationships and cement<br />
old ones.<br />
In 2015, the company chose to sponsor the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> to launch their new business and<br />
to spread the word and since that time they have<br />
gone from strength to strength.<br />
Last year, Woolley & Parks opened their second<br />
office in Beverley and shortly before last year’s<br />
<strong>Show</strong>, the <strong>Driffield</strong> team won silver in the UK<br />
Newcomer Estate Agent of the Year Award. In<br />
May this year, they were announced gold winners<br />
of the British Property Awards 2017.<br />
Mark Woolley said: “The <strong>Show</strong> really puts<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> on the map and helps to support our<br />
local businesses, which is something we are very<br />
passionate about. We realise the importance of the<br />
<strong>Show</strong> to the town and to its residents and just how<br />
much it means to our clients to have their homes<br />
showcased to over 25,000 people within one day.<br />
WIDE SELECTION OF VEHICLES IN STOCK<br />
Please visit our website - www.gboyes.co.uk<br />
for more details on the vehicles<br />
The award-winning Woolley & Parks team sold properties at last year’s <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>.<br />
“Last year we not only sold properties on the<br />
day, but rewarded our customers to a level of<br />
marketing that can be achieved by no other local<br />
event. We used the day to build new relationships<br />
and cement old ones, all the while giving our team<br />
a day out of the office to meet their clients on a<br />
Sell It For You<br />
Selling Agency<br />
face to face level and to show the local market<br />
place that we want to personally handle their<br />
biggest asset in the best way we can.<br />
“We are very proud of the progress we have<br />
made in the past two years and it is thanks to<br />
our incredible team which has grown and I am<br />
delighted they have been on this journey with us.”<br />
He added that keeping up with modern<br />
technologies is very important to the company.<br />
“Last year we had our interactive touch screen<br />
displays installed allowing buyers to view<br />
properties at our office 24 hours a day. We are also<br />
using a state-of-the-art camera that creates a dollshouse<br />
view of a property allowing potential buyers<br />
to walk through a property online, wherever and<br />
whenever they like. We will have a virtual reality<br />
headset available at the <strong>Show</strong> for anyone to give<br />
it a go!<br />
“This year we also have our new homes<br />
department on site ready to launch several new<br />
homes that we are very excited about! We also<br />
have our financial services team on hand to help<br />
with all financial enquiries.<br />
“<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> allows us to showcase all our<br />
client’s homes to thousands of people in just one<br />
day, this is an amazing opportunity for both us and<br />
our clients.<br />
“With complimentary prosecco for the adults<br />
and a colouring competition for the children,<br />
everyone will be enjoying themselves with us this<br />
year! There will also be a chance for one winner<br />
to get their hands on a GoPro camera! It’s all fun,<br />
fun, fun in our Woolley & Parks stand this year,<br />
hopefully the weather will treat us to some sun!”<br />

UK fencing<br />
competition<br />
returns for<br />
an eighth<br />
year<br />
The annual UK Fencing Championships will<br />
make a return to the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> for the<br />
eighth time.<br />
In teams of two, competitors must erect<br />
approximately 40 metres of high tensile stock<br />
netting with two strands of 2.5mm high tensile<br />
line wire above and one 2.5mm line wire below.<br />
A hand tied joint will be required in the netting<br />
towards the middle and a hand tied joint in the top<br />
line wire - no joining aids will be permitted.<br />
One end strainer assembly is to be constructed<br />
with an angle strut and one end strainer assembly<br />
is to be constructed as a box strainer.<br />
Competitors will also be required to install<br />
one standard 3 metre field gate to be hung<br />
independently and railed back to the fence.<br />
Strainer posts and gate posts are to be dug in and<br />
back filled with the original material.<br />
Simone Gallon from Fencing and Landscaping<br />
News, which organises the Championships<br />
in conjunction with the <strong>Driffield</strong> Agricultural<br />
Society, said: “We like the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong><br />
because it is a one day event and the ground is<br />
very challenging for the competitors because it is<br />
chalk underneath which makes the competitors<br />
work even harder!”<br />
There is always a wide range of farm machinery to be seen at <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>.<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Steam rally all set for August<br />
Plans for this year’s <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
Steam & Vintage Rally, which<br />
will be held over the weekend of<br />
Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th<br />
August at <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>ground,<br />
are currently being finalised by<br />
the East Riding Engine Club with<br />
support from the <strong>Show</strong>ground’s<br />
Events Team.<br />
In the interests of public safety and to<br />
make better use of the space available,<br />
a number of changes have been made<br />
to the layout of the rally’s attractions,<br />
but all the features that make the event<br />
so popular will remain.<br />
The stars of the show will be 40 fullsize<br />
steam engines, alongside the same<br />
number of miniature engines, several<br />
of which will be making their first<br />
appearance at the rally.<br />
The Steam Car Club of Great Britain<br />
will once again be well represented<br />
with several cars aged over 100<br />
years old, and a Doble Model E22 of<br />
1925, which is widely regarded as the<br />
ultimate development of the steam car.<br />
Alongside this will be the working<br />
Victor High Wheel, an electric car<br />
made in 1907.<br />
As usual, 200 examples of<br />
agricultural tractors will be on show,<br />
which are only exceeded by the number<br />
of vintage and classic cars, commercial<br />
and military vehicles, motorcycles and<br />
vintage caravans.<br />
“The rally is a great day out for<br />
all the family,” said one of the event<br />
coordinators, Phil Rounce.<br />
“There are attractions for everyone,<br />
from crafts, models, a large market<br />
area, fairground organs, an old-time<br />
Thousands of people attend the annual road run.<br />
fair with dodgems and steam-powered<br />
gallopers among the vintage rides.<br />
“The popular ring events<br />
with parades and heavy haulage<br />
demonstrations will be joined this year<br />
by the welcome return of the Second<br />
World War Rolls Royce Griffon aero<br />
engine, which will be revved up at<br />
intervals and will rekindle memories<br />
of <strong>Driffield</strong>’s RAF station in the 1940s<br />
and 50s.”<br />
For many, the highlight of the<br />
weekend is the road run into the centre<br />
of <strong>Driffield</strong> on the Saturday evening<br />
during which, with the cooperation of<br />
the East Riding of Yorkshire Council,<br />
the roads are formally closed and<br />
exhibits from the <strong>Show</strong>ground parade<br />
through the town before parking for an<br />
hour and giving everyone a show free<br />
of charge.<br />
The miniature steamers and<br />
motorcycles will take over Cross<br />
Hill car park and, as usual, a street<br />
collection in aid of Yorkshire Cancer<br />
Research will take place with the hope<br />
that this year the fundraising total will<br />
pass the £3,000 barrier.<br />
The gates to the Steam & Vintage<br />
Rally will open at 10am on both<br />
days and adult admission is £10 with<br />
accompanied children under 16 free<br />
of charge, making the event excellent<br />
value for a family day out.<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Free information and support on sun<br />
safety and cancer coming to the <strong>Show</strong><br />
Free cancer advice and support will be at<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong>. Macmillan Cancer Support’s<br />
mobile service will have cancer information<br />
specialists on hand to answer questions and<br />
provide information.<br />
The team encourages anyone with worries<br />
relating to cancer to stop by, whether you’re living<br />
with cancer, or care for someone who is. Now<br />
that summer is on the way, the team will also be<br />
providing specialist advice and information about<br />
sun safety and skin cancer (though please note<br />
the team will be unable to perform skin checks.)<br />
The number of people developing melanoma,<br />
the most deadly form of skin cancer, is continuing<br />
to rise, with around 110,330 people living with<br />
malignant melanoma in the UK, and 13,500<br />
people diagnosed every year, (around 37 people<br />
every day). It is the fifth most commonly<br />
diagnosed cancer in the UK, and slightly more<br />
common in women than in men.With all of the<br />
varying types combined, skin cancer is the most<br />
common cancer in the UK.<br />
Caroline Kipling, a Macmillan Information and<br />
Support Specialist on the unit, said: “Skin cancer,<br />
if caught early, is very treatable and actually has<br />
one of the highest survival rates of all cancers.<br />
Being sun aware is key. Our advice is to avoid<br />
sun beds, wear a high SPF sun screen with a fourstar<br />
rating or more so it will block out UVA as<br />
well as UVB rays, and cover up in the sun.”<br />
To help keep you safe in the sun, the<br />
British Association of Dermatologists advises<br />
following these top sun protection tips below:<br />
l Spend time in the shade during the sunniest<br />

part of the day when the sun is at its strongest,<br />
which is usually between 11am and 3pm in the<br />
summer months.<br />
l Avoid direct sun exposure for babies and<br />
very young children.<br />
l When it is not possible to stay out of the<br />
sun, keeping yourself well covered, with a hat,<br />
T-shirt, and sunglasses can give you additional<br />
protection.<br />
l Apply sunscreen liberally to exposed areas<br />
of skin. Re-apply every two hours and straight<br />
after swimming or towelling in order to maintain<br />
protection.<br />
The below guide is a useful tool for checking<br />
your skin for the signs of melanoma skin<br />
cancer, which you should do once a month. If<br />
you have any concerns make an appointment<br />
to see your GP.<br />
l Asymmetry - the two halves of the area may<br />
differ in shape<br />
l Border - the edges of the area may be<br />
irregular or blurred, and sometimes show notches<br />
l Colour - this may be uneven. Different<br />
shades of black, brown and pink may be seen<br />
l Diameter - most melanomas are at least 6mm<br />
in diameter. Report any change in size, shape or<br />
diameter to your doctor<br />
l Expert - if in doubt, check it out! If your GP<br />
is concerned about your skin, make sure you see a<br />
Consultant Dermatologist, the most expert person<br />
to diagnose a skin cancer. Your GP can refer you<br />
via the NHS<br />
Signs of non-melanoma skin cancer may<br />
include:<br />
Do you understand the impact<br />
of your staff under performing?<br />
Are your contracts of<br />
employment legal?<br />
Do you have a process<br />
for disciplinaries?<br />
Do you know how to<br />
manage discrimination?<br />
DO YOU REALLY UNDERSTAND THE<br />
COST OF GETTING THIS WRONG?<br />
With over 20 years’ generalist HR experience,<br />
HRME can offer a full range of services<br />
ranging from basic contract writing to<br />
complex scale TUPE transfers<br />
– all tailored to suit your business needs<br />
For further information please email:<br />

http://www.hrme.uk<br />
First class local HR advice tailored to<br />
suit your needs<br />
l A scab or sore that won’t heal. It may also<br />
bleed occasionally<br />
l A scaly or crusty patch of skin that looks red<br />
or inflamed<br />
l A flesh coloured, pearly lump that won’t go<br />
away and appears to be growing in size<br />
l A lump on the skin which is getting bigger<br />
and that may be scabby<br />
l A growth with a pearly rim surrounding a<br />
central crater, a bit like an upturned volcano<br />
Caroline added: “We’re also there for anyone<br />
else with any worries or concerns, no matter<br />
what type of cancer. Whether you’ve just been<br />
diagnosed, are going through treatment or are<br />
living beyond cancer, feel free to pay us a visit<br />
– and we welcome carers, family members and<br />
loved ones as well. We can provide information<br />
on a range of issues, including different<br />
treatments, financial advice, exercise, getting<br />

offer for you. You can even just stop by for a chat,<br />
no appointment needed.”<br />

The <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong><br />
welcomes the return of<br />
the Beverley Beekeepers<br />
Association Annual Honey<br />
<strong>Show</strong> which showcases<br />
the very best honey and<br />
wax products from local<br />
beekeepers.<br />
Situated in the Horticultural<br />
marquee, The Honey <strong>Show</strong> also<br />
gives experienced beekeepers<br />
the opportunity to educate<br />
people about beekeeping and<br />
the importance of bees.<br />
The Honey <strong>Show</strong> features 14<br />
classes including honey, wax,<br />
candles, cookery, photography<br />
and open classes for hive<br />
related items and crafts. Honey<br />
and wax exhibits must be the<br />
produce of the exhibitor’s<br />
own bees, although cakes and<br />
confectionary can be made with<br />
any honey and does not need<br />
to be honey produced by the<br />
exhibitor’s own bees.<br />
The Beverley Beekeepers’<br />
Association, which is part of<br />
the wider Yorkshire Beekeepers<br />
Association, has a membership<br />
of approximately 150 people,<br />
ranging from those about<br />
to start exploring the hobby<br />
to those with decades of<br />
beekeeping experience.<br />
The Beverley Beekeepers’<br />
Association covers the East<br />
Riding of Yorkshire and<br />
Hull, but works with adjacent<br />
Beekeeping Associations<br />
to preserve and promote<br />
Honeybees in our area.<br />
Honey <strong>Show</strong> secretary<br />
Gillian Thatcher, who has<br />
kept bees alongside her sister<br />
Jennifer Owen for the past<br />
seven years, said the Honey<br />
<strong>Show</strong> provides a fantastic<br />
opportunity to promote their<br />
hobby and the products<br />
associated with it, as well as<br />
encouraging more people to try<br />
their hand at beekeeping.<br />
She said: “Bees are extremely<br />
important to us all. A third of all<br />
our food depends on pollination<br />
by bees and other pollinating<br />
insects. However numbers are<br />
declining due to pesticides used<br />
in agriculture, viruses which are<br />
coming over here from abroad<br />
and also invading insects such<br />
as the Asian Hornet.<br />
“In addition to the Honey<br />
<strong>Show</strong>, we will have two<br />
observational hives with live<br />
bees, so people can take a<br />
closer look and we also have<br />
two experienced beekeepers<br />
who make their own traditional<br />
bee skeps, which are baskets<br />
used to collect swarms.<br />
“We will also have our<br />
members on hand to answer<br />
any questions people may have<br />
about beekeeping and how they<br />
can get started.”<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
Try your hand<br />
at baking your<br />
own bread<br />
For more than 10 years the wheat to bread<br />
demonstration has been a popular attraction<br />
at the <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> allowing people to find<br />
out about the milling process and try their<br />
hand at baking their own bread.<br />
The hands-on interactive display is aimed at<br />
young and old alike and shows the whole process<br />
of bread-making starting with the wheat grain,<br />
through the milling process to produce four and<br />
using that flour to make dough, which visitors<br />
can then mould into their own bread bun, which<br />
is then baked for them to take away.<br />
Stuart Bradshsw from E B Bradshaw and Sons<br />
at Bell Mills in <strong>Driffield</strong>, runs the demonstration<br />
in conjunction with the Education Committee of<br />
the <strong>Driffield</strong> Agricultural Society.<br />
He said he hopes the demonstration will help to<br />
inspire the next generation of bakers.<br />
“This is the 12th year we have run the wheat<br />
to bread demonstration and it is always great fun<br />
and it is lovely to see the same faces coming back<br />
year after year.<br />
“The demonstration attracts people from the<br />
Informing the community<br />
about farming and the<br />
food the industry provides<br />
One of the main remits of the<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> Agricultural Society<br />
is to educate and inform the<br />
community about farming and<br />
the food the industry provides.<br />
The Society’s Education<br />
Committee tries to fulfil this<br />
aim with activities targeted at<br />
all sections of the community.<br />
In May, the <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
Agricultural Society held its<br />
second annual Education Day<br />
at the <strong>Show</strong>ground, when 1,500<br />
children were given an insight<br />
into where their food comes<br />
from and how it is produced.<br />
Pupils from schools in<br />
the Wolds Weekly area as<br />
well as hundreds from Hull<br />
and Scarborough had the<br />
opportunity to watch farm<br />
machinery in action, learn how<br />
to milk cows and were educated<br />
on how their food makes its way<br />
onto the supermarket shelves.<br />
More than 70 different<br />
farmers, growers and food<br />
producers attended the event<br />
and staged interactive displays,<br />
which the children could get<br />
involved with and gain hands<br />
on experience in a safe and<br />
controlled environment.<br />
Chair of the Education<br />
Committee, Gill Butler, said:<br />
“So many children, even those<br />
from rural areas, have no firsthand<br />
experience of where there<br />
food comes from and so the<br />
purpose of the day is about<br />
educating young people about<br />
food and farming.<br />
“We held the Education Day<br />
for the first time last year and<br />
850 children attended, but this<br />
year we had 1,500 children aged<br />
nine, 10 and 11 from schools in<br />
the East Riding, Scarborough<br />
DID YOU KNOW?<br />
There was no <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong><br />
during the First and Second<br />
World Wars and during the<br />
Great Depression. In its early<br />
years, some shows were missed<br />
due to foot and mouth disease,<br />
or clashes with the Yorkshire<br />
<strong>Show</strong>.<br />
age of two to 92 to come along and have a go.<br />
“Hopefully the demonstration will make<br />
people stop and think. They can go to the shop<br />
to buy their loaf of bread, but hopefully this may<br />
inspire people to have a go at making their own<br />
bread, and also think about where their food<br />
comes from.”<br />
The wheat to bread demonstrations take place<br />
throughout the day and are announced on the loud<br />
speaker.<br />
and Hull, including 150 from<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> Junior School.<br />
“We have had fantastic<br />
feedback from those who<br />
attended and so we will be<br />
staging the event again next<br />
year.<br />
“The <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> is also<br />
very much about educating<br />
people about farming and<br />
food and we have many<br />
demonstrations, presentations<br />
and interactive opportunities<br />
for people to find out more<br />
about agriculture.<br />
“This year there will be<br />
a questionnaire available to<br />
families as they enter the <strong>Show</strong><br />
as a fun way for children to<br />
remember what they have learnt<br />
at the <strong>Show</strong>. We will also have a<br />
recording of the Education Day<br />
showing people what it was all<br />
about.”<br />

142nd <strong>Driffield</strong> <strong>Show</strong> – Special Supplement brought to you by the <strong>Driffield</strong> & Wolds Weekly<br />
The canal was once thriving with traffic.<br />
Back in its heyday many large vessels could be seen arriving in <strong>Driffield</strong>.<br />
The history of one of<br />
the oldest navigations<br />
in the country<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> Canal is one of the oldest<br />
navigations in the country dating back<br />
to the first Act of Parliament in 1767,<br />
which authorised the creation of the<br />
waterway. The canal first opened to<br />
boat traffic in 1770.<br />
The canal was built to establish important<br />
trade links between the market town of<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> and Hull, and the wider network<br />
of Humber waterways.<br />
Merchants in Hull, including William<br />
Wilberforce’s grandfather, who owned ships<br />
got together with local farmers to move grain<br />
from farms in this area to mills in Hull and in<br />
return they brought coal here to fuel the traction<br />
engines that were being used to cultivate the<br />
land.<br />
Commissioners were appointed to manage<br />
and run the canal, who had powers to borrow<br />
money, with which to fund the construction of<br />
the canal.<br />
Early use of the Navigation was hampered<br />
by a small bridge at Hull Bridge, which was<br />
maintained by Beverley Corporation. After<br />
prolonged negotiation, it was finally replaced in<br />
1804, and a new lock was built to improve water<br />
levels at the same time.<br />
The Navigation gradually became more<br />
profitable, and although railways arrived at<br />
<strong>Driffield</strong> in 1846, the waterway continued to<br />
prosper and increase its traffic until the 1870s.<br />
It continued to make a small profit until the<br />
1930s, however traffic using the canal had been<br />
gradually declining due to an increase in rail and<br />
then road haulage.<br />
The last commercial craft to reach <strong>Driffield</strong><br />
was the Keel Caroline loaded with 50 tons of<br />
wheat on 16 March 1945. The last commercial<br />
craft on the Navigation was the vessel Ousefleet,<br />
delivering coal to Frodingham Wharf during the<br />
period to December 1951.<br />
With reduced use, the canal fell into disrepair<br />
and became unnavigable. This was coupled with<br />
a decline in the number of Commissioners and<br />
by the time of their last meeting in 1952, there<br />
were too few to make a legal decision.<br />
When Bethell’s Bridge fell derelict around<br />
1968, the river’s users, the motor boaters and<br />
a sailing club, formed the <strong>Driffield</strong> Navigation<br />
Amenities Association (DNAA) to try to put<br />
the canal back into use. At this point only one<br />
commissioner was still alive and he lived in<br />
Rhodesia.<br />
Their first role of the DNAA was to set up<br />
a new body to run the waterway, which was<br />
achieved by registering the waterway as a charity<br />
with the Charity Commission and appointing a<br />
board of trustees and so the <strong>Driffield</strong> Navigation<br />
Trust (DNT) was formed in 1978 as the business<br />
arm of the canal.<br />
