After all the excitement of yesterday's World Cup football, the County Show returns to more familiar territory today.

The showcase for farming, countryside and rural life continues with show-jumping in the Astor Ring from 8am, and various cattle competitions in the Hadlow College Ring from 8.30am.

At 10am there is ferret racing in the countryside area and a birds of prey display in the countryside ring.

Elsewhere there is live music from Vic Ellis, clay shooting, morris dancing and a horse-shoeing competition.

Children can enjoy a Punch and Judy show at noon and the Salvation Army takes to the bandstand at 12.30pm.

There is a vintage car parade in the heritage ring at 12.30pm with the ever popular heavy horses on parade at 1.45pm in the Astor Ring.

Other attractions include pig-racing, terrier racing and steam engines and more than 400 stalls and exhibitions.

There are plenty of refreshments points throughout the showground.

Today is the third and last day of the show, which is expected to have been attended by more than 80,000.

Tickets are available on the gate, price £23 for adults, £7 for children.

Motorists are reminded lane two is closed on the A249 Maidstone-bound, past the showground, to prepare for the right turn into site, with a 40-mph speed limit is in place.
