A big message of thanks from the Cherington and Stourton Show Committee

‘To all the villagers who have supported the show this year, we couldn’t do it without you all.

We are absolutely thrilled to have had such a successful show, the sunshine certainly helped.

Special thanks to Jon Pym and Philip Townsend for use of their fields for parking.

We would love to hear any feedback you may have; we took a gamble changing venues and learnt a lot (some changes for next year). We would love your thoughts.

Thank you.’
