Experiencing some history

The event, billed as the north’s largest World War One and World War Two - and post-war military - vehicle and living history event provided re-enactments from both world wars, period music, displays, authentic uniforms and equipment that was second-to-none at Hunsworth Lane, East Bierley.

On Saturday the show included a fly-over from one of the most iconic second world war planes, a Spitfire,

Organisers said the weekend had been amazing and they were already looking forward to next year’s event, which will be at the same venue on July 6, 7 and 8, 2018.

“We have loved every second, and hope you have too. All the re-enactors, vehicle owners and living history displays have been brilliant and we’ve had some great feedback about their knowledge and presentations.

“Finally, a huge thanks to all the public who visit us, old and new. Without you guys there wouldn’t be a show in the first place.

“We hope you all had a fantastic weekend and we look forward to seeing you all next year,” said the organising team.
