Thousands head to north Northumberland as Glendale Show returns for first time since 2019

One of the biggest events in the north Northumberland social calendar returned this August Bank Holiday as an estimated 12,000 people descended on the Wooler Showfield.

The Glendale Show was postponed for the last two years due to the Coronavirus pandemic, and despite some overcast weather, it was a big hit on its return after three years, with all aspects of life in the countryside on display. Taking centre stage were the animal classes, with sheep, cattle, horses, donkeys and goats all up for judging, among others.

This year's Champion of Champions went to Mrs McGowan from Horncliffe Mains with Hunter the Horse. The overall sheep champion was the Shearling Texel Tup of Ian Murray of Glenway Texels, while cattle was won by Jonathan Craggs of Glower-Oer-Him Sedgefield with a commercial Heifer.
