The event, on land near the village water tower, offered displays of military vehicles, steam engines, vintage farm machinery and classic cars and motorcycles.

“Not as many tractors turned up because driving up was tricky because of the weather but the event was still a success.

“One of the highlights from the exhibits was a vintage American Army red cross truck.”
