During their visit, Their Royal Highnesses had the opportunity to engage with the volunteers who work tirelessly to make the show a reality each year.
One of the highlights of the showground is the Community Garden, which is home to the 'Root and Branch Out' program.
This program utilizes gardening as a tool for educational support for children and as a form of therapy for individuals in the local community.
Following their time at the showground, the royal couple paid a visit to Oakham Castle, the oldest court in the country and a remarkable example of Norman domestic architecture in Europe.
While at the historic venue, Their Royal Highnesses were invited to present a symbolic horseshoe, an ancient custom that allows the Lord of the Manor to request a token from passing Peers of the Realm.
The Duke and Duchess presented a unique double horseshoe, which will be added to the collection displayed on the castle walls.
Other horseshoes in the collection were presented by past Monarchs and members of the Royal Family, including Queen Elizabeth II in 1967 and King Charles III (formerly Prince of Wales) in 2003.
During their visit, the royal couple also became the first members of the Royal Family to view the newly unveiled statue of Queen Elizabeth II and her Corgis in Oakham Library Gardens.
This statue, a permanent memorial, was commissioned by Rutland's Lord-Lieutenant, Dr.
Sarah Furness.
Their Royal Highnesses had the opportunity to watch a short film detailing the creative journey behind the statue and meet its sculptor, Hywel Pratley, who has strong ties to the local community.
To conclude their visit, the Duke and Duchess also explored The late Duke of Edinburgh’s Memorial Orchard.
