Blidworth Dale, Ravenshead, Notts.
Saturday 28th September 2013
The main ring attraction will be the ‘Essex Dog Display Team’
Britain’s longest established dog display team and still the most professional, entertaining and exciting to watch. They have set the standard for 32 years and are not a copy of other dog teams. With an outstanding and unique commentary, the team are extremely professional in their presentation and have tremendous appeal to all age groups. Presenting two varied displays with audience participation, this is not just an agility team, the display consists of many varied and exciting exercises. They have appeared at numerous prestigious and major events throughout the UK. They are the only civilian dog display team to be selected for the Royal Tournament.
Southwell ploughing match is the largest agricultural one day show in Nottinghamshire, established in 1855 and run by a committee comprising of local business people and rural enthusiasts. The annual show is held at a different venue every year with 2013 being held at Blidworth Dale.
The show represents all the really important interests of agriculture from horse ploughing through the vintage years to the modern day tractor, a variety of livestock, static displays and trade stands to suit all tastes. In more recent years horse classes, dog show and the farmers market have been introduced.
If anyone wishes to become a steward or become a helper please contact the show office, help is greatly appreciated, as the show is only able to run from the very generous help and time given by the committee members, stewards and helpers.
In 2009 we were awarded Country Life Magazine’s Country Event of the year.
