It was started by owners of vintage Bentleys, then they were joined by owners of all brands of vintage cars. As word spread classic car owners started to turn up, now classic cars are parked in the field area opposite the pub and vintage cars in the field area adjacent to pub. Perhaps not the show for modern super cars and I have never seen one there. Usually a small band or duo provide live music, usual pub refreshments and food.
Website gives an idea from images of the event previous years.

Oh I didn't think to look on here about this. I brought the breadvan along - stood out like a sore thumb in the middle of the field but was very well received...
Fantastic selection of motors - great day out.

You may have to phone them. I seem to recall it's changed hands and the website says still under construction.

That's great news. How will it be publicised though - website still under construction.

I didn't know Stephen or Gaynor, but when I came last year there was a such a nice vibe I can only assume they were part of that.
