The Irish Royal Agricultural Society's Show at Dublin, 1871. 'The show was held...in a field lying between the Rock Road and Simmons' Court, adjoining Donnvbrook...A third part of the whole space was set apart for the horses, and several formidable barriers were erected to try the jumping powers of the hunters...Every horse in the leaping competition had to carry 12 st. Along each side of the space allotted to the horse show were the stands for the spectators to see this performance; one stand affording room for 1600 persons, and the other for 1200...The oxen and cows, the sheep, the swine, and the poultry, the implements and machinery, the vegetables, fruit, flax, and butter, were exhibited in long ranges of sheds'.
