Assembly on the Green by 12:30pm and the fete opens 1:00pm closes 4:00pm. \n\n\n\nIt is not expected that all cars have to remain on site for the whole time but preferred as there are pedestrians to consider. \n\n\n\nLast year it was an eclectic mix of vehicles from a Stanley steam car\, through usual classic collection to modern super cars. Something for everyone. There is a Sponsor to chose the ‘Best Car in Show’ together with all the other delights of an active Village Fete.
