Horse-drawn traveller caravans caused a tailback of around Six miles between the Appleby bypass and Brough in Cumbria. Today is when those travellers with traditional horse drawn caravans are allowed to move went to the festival site, before the rest move onto the festival grounds tomorrow.

Dash-cam footage filmed on June 5 shows several traditional vehicles trundling along the A66 near Appleby-in-Westmoreland on their way to the annual horse festival in the area.

A long queue of cars, lorries and vans trails behind the caravans slowing them down to walking speed.

Up to 10,000 travellers from around the flock to the small town Appleby can do what they want in the north of the country for the fair.

The main purpose of the event is for buying and selling horses.
