Travellers drive their horse-drawn caravans up steep hill on their way to Appleby Horse Fair

A small convoy of travellers test their horses' strength by driving their caravans up a steep hill ahead of the Appleby Horse Fair in Cumbria.

The first two caravans thunder on up the hill but the next needed some verbal encouragement from its owners, one of whom was running alongside the struggling stallion.

This video was filmed on Tuesday, June 4.
