HRH The Princess Royal visited the Royal Highland Show on Friday and was accompanied by RHASS Chairman, James Logan, and Chief Executive, Alex Paterson on a tour of the Show ground.
This included a visit to the RHET Discovery Centre, where she met local primary school children taking part in the educational activities. She also enjoyed watching the showjumping competition and toured the Cattle Hall.
Fittingly, the Queen’s Cup was awarded on Friday at the Royal Highland Show – a prestigious trophy awarded annually to the champion of the livestock entry. This year it was presented to Messrs Webster + Smith with dairy goat, Guilden Elma.
David Tennant, Head of Show, said: “Friday at the Show has been a true sun-soaked spectacle and we are thrilled to see our visitors and families enjoy all that the show has to offer. From sheep shearing to competitions, sheepdog skills to cookery demonstrations, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
“We were very honoured to have welcomed HRH The Princess Royal today and shared with her all of the great achievements from the Scottish agricultural industry.”
