With each passing year, this show grew bigger and better, moving from its humble beginnings to find its new home at Agricultural Hall. The Smithfield Club Cattle Show Yard stands as a testament to the dedication and passion that went into organizing such an extraordinary spectacle. Engravings showcase Lord Walsingham, President of the Smithfield Club, overseeing every detail with precision and grace. His leadership ensured that only excellence graced these hallowed grounds. But it wasn't just cattle that stole the spotlight; sheep and pigs also had their moment in history's spotlight during Wednesday's Sheep and Pig Show on December 7th, 1842. Engravings depict these woolly creatures parading alongside their porcine counterparts - a true celebration of rural life. Year after year, generations gathered eagerly for The Annual Exhibition of the Smithfield Club - an event filled with anticipation and excitement.
