Despite the rain and unstable weather, the last day of the Yorkshire Dales Food and Drink Festival, which took place on Funkirk Farm, Skipton, on Sunday, July 23, was completely packed with visitors.
James Martin, who hails from Malton, hosted a chef demonstration as well as a Q&A at the event and fashion guru Gok Wan DJ’d into the night.
