Hywel Morgan

World record holder Hywel Morgan provides a fascinating and entertaining display of fly-fishing which will enthral fishing fans of all abilities. A regular competitor in casting competitions as a youngster, the Welshman was so successful in his youth that he was asked not to compete at the CLA Game Fair before he even reached the age of sixteen, to give other people a chance of winning! He has represented his country on 12 occasions including six World Championships. A popular media personality, Hywel has presented programmes for Welsh channel S4C and made numerous guest appearances on tv and at country shows around the world.

South East Falconry Group

The South East Falconry Group will provide a fascinating flying display to captivate the audience across the showground. Like all animals, birds can be unpredictable and it is this element of luck which often provides some of the most entertaining and amusing displays as the birds make up the rules and show off their flying skills. The South East Falconry Group was formed in 1981 and is fortunate to have members who are highly skilled and experienced in all aspects of keeping, breeding and hunting birds of prey.

Vintage Parade

Big boys and small will love the display of vintage machinery which will include a wide selection of vehicles. Take a moment to enjoy the elderly tractors as they stutter around the ring, or marvel at the purring engines of classic cars from a bygone age.

Parade of Hounds

 

Despite the implications of the Hunting Act, local hunts still form a vital part of the rural community. Enjoy the great spectacle of the hunt servants and their horses in all their finery as they parade around the ring blowing the traditional hunting horn with their pack of hounds. Be prepared for chaos as a couple of nosey hounds will inevitably venture into the crowds surrounding the main ring looking for an unattended ice cream or a tasty small child to lick to death!
