In pictures: Memories of the East of England Show Part 1

The Peterborough Telegraph is looking back on the East of England show, which ran for over 200 years.

At the height of the show’s popularity, it would attract crowds in excess of 100,000 to the East of England Showground.

It included everything from livestock showing, the chance to meet and animals as well as many impressive shows and stunts in the main ring or in the air above the showground.

The show ended after the 2021 edition due to falling crowd numbers but it is still remembered so fondly by many in the city.
