CHANGEABLE weather didn't deter the crowds who enjoyed the 2023 Chepstow Show at Chepstow Racecourse.
The main show ring hosted displays from Woolaston Bassets and the Usk Valley Working Gun Dogs among others and there were plenty of typical county show attractions to wander around.
These included livestock, dogs and the homecraft and horticulture marquees.
Another marquee housed a range of craft stalls and local produce was on sale in yet another one.
