A ring full of buyers travelled from across the counties in search of the high-quality farming cattle the market had to offer.

The show was judged by Charlie Asher, Derbyshire, who found his overall champion in a 12- month-old Limousin cross steer from R. L. Richie and Son, Skegness, who also took the reserve championship with a pen of three 12-month-old Limousin sired steers.
