A horse show set against one of Suffolk's most magnificent sights is set to return on July 15.
Framlingham Horse Show takes place in the town's Castle Meadow to provide a stunning backdrop for the annual event.
One of the highlights of the day - which is organised by Framlingham Livestock Association - is its carriage driving parade.
The immaculately turned-out vehicles will be driven through the town via Market Hill and on to the castle where they go on parade. Prizes are presented at around 2.30pm.
For those interested in taking a closer look, their preparations and classes can be viewed on the lawn in front of Framlingham College with judging starting at 11am.
The 127th Framlingham Horse show - whose president this year is Lucy Murrell - can be traced back to 1879 when several gentlemen of Worlingworth held a show.
The association was founded 14 years later in 1893 to encourage good breeding practice for all animals including horses.
The event is held annually - and has only been disrupted by the war, foot-and-mouth disease and more recently, the pandemic.
Entry is free and organisers promise a "great family day out".
As well as food stalls, there are trade stands including for the Rare Breeds Survival Trust and Suffolk Horse Society.
The show is supported by law firm Birketts, Binder Ltd, Clarke & Simpson, Deben Valley Equine Vets, Framlingham Travel, and R G Landscapes and Construction.
Light horse showing classes are judged in the morning, followed by a championship and trophy presentation at 11am.
Suffolk Horses were the focus of the early shows and the rare heavy horse breed still remains a very important part of the event.
It hosts the Suffolk Horse Society Foal show with the foals - accompanied by their mothers - competing for a range of trophies. Suffolk Horse classes begin at 11.45am.
Winners of the Suffolk classes take part in a parade in the afternoon and the event will be rounded up with a display by the Hamilton Bloodhounds.
Association chairman Carl Wright said: "As a show committee we have always worked hard to maintain close links with our tradition and heritage while offering classes which are relevant to people today.
"Our location on the Castle Meadow is stunning – I don’t know of anywhere else quite like it and we look forward to sharing it."
