Highlights of the Royal Welsh Show - Rhyl


Show life: from beauty queens and motorbikes to the livestock handlers and stand staff who do their best to keep clean whilst living on site.

At the Royal Welsh Show in Rhyl, 1956, it's rewards all round: for beauty (Miss Wrexham), for long-service, for hunters and hackneys, cobs and bulls. R G Iles, of The South Wales & Monmouthshire Agricultural & Horse Shows Association, also catches glimpses of show life on film. The livestock handlers and/or people staffing the stands are seen cheerfully maintaining standards of cleanliness on the site that has become their temporary home for the 3 days of the event.
