Final farm show

A 170-YEAR-OLD agricultural show is expected to attract 100,000 visitors when it opens for the final time.

The Royal Show, in Stoneleigh, Warwickshire, has been hit by foot-and-mouth in 2001, flooding in 2007 and the arrival of bluetongue. This year’s show, starting on July 7, will be the last.
