A CELEBRATION of the steam age took place in Stoke Row over the weekend, as its rally returned.
Thousands of people flocked to Whitchurch Hill to enjoy two days of family-friendly fun.
Visitors could explore displays of steam engines, tractors, cars, trucks, motorbikes and plant machinery.
There were also military vehicles, and a visit from Carters Steam Fair.
A new display area was set up for miniature steam engines, used for log hauling, winching and loading.
And there was a field set up for exhibitors to ride their vehicles so people could see them in action.
Other attractions included a flypast from a Hurricane, craft stalls, live music and food and drink stalls.
Unfortunately weather conditions prevented a hot air balloon from making an appearance.
The event was judged to be a success, with visitors taking to social media to praise the event, many calling it a brilliant day out.
Now the team is preparing for next year’s event.
