A record number of visitors turned up to an agricultural show although some people did struggle with access issues.
The Minsterley Show in Shropshire saw more than 5,000 people attend on Saturday.
However, some visitors queued for up to an hour to access the new site near Cruckton, west of Shrewsbury. Chairman Tom Sellers a crop field was being used as a car park and it had not been combined, due to the weather.
The show, which has taken place since 1875, was at a new site on Manor Farm in Cruckton.
Mr Sellers said a lot of lessons had been learnt and next year they will make sure there are more points of access into the show, as he described the parking as “tight”.
“Access is my number one priority now as ultimately I want as many people enjoying themselves as quickly as possible,” he added.
