HUNT supporters were out in force at the 132nd Stokesley Show on Saturday following last week's vote by MPs to ban the sport.

Members of Cleveland Hunt and Stokesley Farmers' Beagles took centre stage in the afternoon, inviting youngsters into the main ring to see the hounds.

Also in the rings were a gundog display, sheepdog trials, show-jumping and a quad-bike display.

Vintage machinery fans were given displays of traditional threshing using a steam engine, thresher and bailer, and there were more than 50 vintage tractors on show.

The agricultural show is one of the most popular in the North and has 840 classes.
