CROWDS flocked to Stratford Park this weekend for Stroud Show.

The event featured an array of exciting activities including, after a gap of nearly 20 years, the return of the popular brick throwing competition.

Visitors enjoyed meeting an array of livestock, with Dexter cows, Cotswold sheep, goats, alpacas, carthorses and other animals making an appearance.

There were dog shows too, and a chance for gardeners to exhibit their flowers and vegetables in the horticultural show.

Talented young musicians took part in the Stroud’s Got Talent battle of the bands competition.
