Vintage Harvest Rally this weekend

A Vintage Harvest Rally is taking place in Suncroft on Sunday August 31 in aid of the Howe Family Cottage Restoration Fund, writes Brian Byrne.

There will be on exhibit vintage tractors, combine harvesters, steam engines, military vehicles and equipment, stationary engines, as well as tractor pulling and live music.

A blacksmith will be showing his trade, as will a thatcher, and there will be butter making and flour making.

The road run element of the Rally will leave Martinstown at 12 noon, and entry is by donation.
