There was a great turnout for the annual Doune and Dunblane Show on Saturday, despite a drizzly weather forecast.
This year’s agricultural event featured top-quality livestock, traditional rural demonstrations and a vibrant equestrian section, with affiliated classes and championship qualifiers, including for Scone Palace.
Established in 1947, the show usually attracts around 2,500 visitors.
Trade stands, craft stalls, food and drink, and family-friendly activities made it a wonderful day out for all ages.
Attendees were also treated to a gun dog display, a dog show, and a performance by Doune Pipe Band.
