Gypsies raced their wagons down tiny streets and washed their horses in the river as they made last minute preparations ahead of the Appleby Fair tomorrow.
Locals in Appleby-in-Westmorland, Cumbria, have been bracing themselves for chaos as thousands of travellers from across Europe flocked to the town ahead of the six-day event.
In footage posted on social media, a line of Gypsies on horse-drawn carriages are seen galloping down a road causing traffic to come to a snail's pace.
In a video titled 'Appleby 2025 so far', a toddler is seen being held by his mother on the back of a horse.
Gypsies have also been washing their horses in the River Eden as part of a long-held tradition to prepare them for sale and to cool them off.
