17th June - History of the Dunning Flower Show

parish church with flower show banner

Jimmy Smith has been involved with Dunning Flower Show for almost 60 years, and on the committee for much of that time. He shared his extensive memories of the shows with us, aided by a wide selection of photos of exhibitors and exhibits. He showed how it started as a vegetable show, adding flowers, baking, handicrafts and fancy dress over the years. For a period it was a major event with a pipe band, games and amusements including pony rides.
