Coylton Show
It’s all over for another season after last Saturday’s annual show from Coylton & Stair Farmers Society.
The show beat the weather and was judged “fantastic” by well- wishers.
Preparation had put the field at Drumdow Holm in top order, and a big marquee had plenty of space for undercover activities.
Only a couple of horse classes did not go ahead.
Secretary Diane Allan said: “We would like to thank everyone who came along to the show - exhibitors, judges and spectators.
“Also a thank you to all our sponsors as without them the show could not go on. “And lastly a thank you to the Gemmell Family for allowing us to hold the show in their field.”
Our photographer Brian Muir captured some of the topaction.
