This weekend: Tractor working weekend; morris dancing workshop

Rugby Editorial 20th Sep, 2019   0

A UNIQUE event for tractor enthusiasts takes place in Lilbourne this weekend.

The Blue Force Tractor Club is hosting the Roadless 100 and County 90 working weekend at Lodge Farm on Saturday and Sunday (September 21-22).

The event is devoted to two important anniversaries of British tractor manufacturers.

Roadless Traction was formed in 1919 in Middlesex, and County Commercial Cars from Hampshire began in 1929. Both went out of business in the early 1980s.




Around 200 tractors are already booked in, and they will be put through their paces on ploughs and cultivators across 300 acres of land.

Call Simon Perry on 07967 461021 for more information.


 

A MORRIS dancing team is holding a free workshop for anyone interested in taking up the hobby.

Knightlow Morris Men will welcome visitors at Rugby Methodist Church Centre from 1-4pm on Saturday (September 21).
