One of Yorkshire's biggest celebrations of farming and rural life has returned to Duncombe Park, Helmsley, today (Tuesday) with an action-packed day of competition, entertainment and family fun.

Ryedale Show, which has been at the heart of the county's agricultural calendar since 1855, attracts thousands of visitors each year and features one of the region's largest displays of livestock, horses, local produce and traditional rural crafts.

Here we have a first glimpse of some of the events from today.
