Little Casterton Working Weekend September 16- 17
 

Hall Farm, Little Casterton, Stamford, Lincolnshire, PE9 4BE. Well signposted from the A1.

A proper working event with some very rare machinery, almost exclusively pre-war.

Steam content will be two sets of Fowler engines ploughing and cultivating, a full threshing set (or two), baling and sawing.

No organs, no market stalls, no shrollers, no beer.... but an excellent tea and catering tent!

Is there any special theme this year? Last time I attended it was muck spreading! Actually it was quite an education. I didn't realise how many machines had been developed for the purpose over the years.

Theme
 

No set theme this year Alan, but there will be over ten pre-1920 tractors at work, along with associated implements.

We cut and bound a few trailer loads last week and will hopefully have a binder going over the weekend as well.

Any one know what combines are coming out this year

Combines
 

Wait and see !
A couple have been extracted from the back of the shed after a few years resting and there will hopefully be some surprises too.

Bump !
