Potton Show paid respects to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II with Jubilee theme

Despite the sad news of the monarch's passing, the Potton Show Committee decided to proceed with its event on September 10 in the church field.

Committee members wore black armbands and a minute's silence was held during the afternoon as a show of respect.

A spokesman said: "The Potton Show was inevitably tinged with sadness as the theme this year was the Jubilee, but the show continued with tributes to the Queen's reign featured in the classes of exhibits, including winning entries.

"Local people brought along a good selection of produce and there were also some fantastic cookery, arts and crafts entries.

"The show was well attended and ended with a prize-giving and an auction of produce, raising money for next year's event."
