LYFC chairman Matt Denby said: “It was a fantastic day with a great turn-out. It was great for Louth too as I think that is the first time they have been crowned overall winners at the rally.”

He added: “A big thanks go to Chandlers farm equipment for sponsoring the event.”

Along with watching the lively competitions in action, visitors were able to browse a variety of farm vehicles, machinery and stalls.

The rally raised £130 for Kidney Reserach UK.
