The North Somerset Show is an agricultural show held annually in May at Wraxall, North Somerset, England. It is organised by the North Somerset Agricultural Society. HistoryThe society was formed out of the North Somerset Ploughing Society in 1840 by a group of farmers.[1][2] The sole purpose was to promote and showcase agricultural development to both those involved in farming and agriculture as well as to promote an agricultural awareness to the general public. The event used to be held at Ashton Court in Bristol until the society purchased its current 130-acre site, which was previously part of the Tyntesfield Estate, in 2002.[3] Many other events are also held at this site throughout the year. The Show TodayMany of the basic traditions can still be found in today's show with the emphasis still being very much on agriculture. The showing of livestock, horses and demonstrations of local and rural skills and crafts still play an important part of the show. The 2018 event was the 159th show.[4][5] References1. ^{{cite web|title=About NSAS|url=http://www.nsas.org.uk/about-nsas/|publisher=North Somerset Agricultural Society|accessdate=28 December 2014|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141210194702/http://www.nsas.org.uk/about-nsas/|archivedate=10 December 2014|df=}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=North Somerset Show|url=http://www.farminguk.com/agricultural-shows-and-events/North-Somerset-Show_93.html|publisher=Farming UK|accessdate=28 December 2014}} 3. ^{{cite news|title=Crowds turn out for North Somerset Show|url=http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/Crowds-turn-North-Somerset/story-11286338-detail/story.html|accessdate=28 December 2014|publisher=Bristol Post|date=5 May 2009}} 4. ^{{cite news|title=North Somerset Show get off to a bright start for the year |url=http://www.westerndailypress.co.uk/Agricultural-shows-bright-start-year/story-21061644-detail/story.html|accessdate=28 December 2014|publisher=Western Daily Press|date=6 May 2014}} 5. ^{{cite news|title=North Somerset Show set to be a winner|url=http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/North-Somerset-set-winner/story-21045972-detail/story.html|accessdate=28 December 2014|publisher=Bristol Post|date=2 May 2014}} External links
