IN PICTURES: Berwickshire County Show


Winning the overall show champion topped off a successful run for Duns farmer Andrew Hodge, of Rulesmains, Duns; his seven year old Aberdeen Angus heifer Rulesmains Karen taking the top prize and the R J Forrest Cup for overall cattle champion, a week after being judged the beef inter-breed champion at the Border Union Show.
Lady Caroline Douglas-Home judged the overall show champion, and she selected the call duck shown by Rhona Darling, of Ladyflat Duns, as reserve overall champion.
