Ploughing skills on show

Anybody who fancies mucking in and spreading stubble over fields using traditional farming methods, should go along to Cregneash today (Saturday).

It's the venue for a ploughing match for both skilled and budding ploughmen, and their teams of working horses.

The organisers, Manx National Heritage, say it's also an opportunity to meet resident working horses and see first-hand the traditional methods of farming still used at the national folk museum.

The ploughing match runs from 10am to 5pm.
