Farmers were taking part in a nationwide protest against possible trade deals which might see hormone-treated meat and chlorinated chicken on UK shop shelves.

Passers-by cheered and other motorists sounded their horns in solidarity.

On Monday the House of Commons will discuss amendments to the Agriculture Bill.

Campaign group Save British Farming organised the convoy and others throughout the country.
