Marlborough; Stoke Row; Amberley & Copythorne 10/11 June

[P Whymer]

This weekends trip up from Devon was meant to take in 6 events but a combination of events resulted in visiting four - Wiltshire Steam and Vintage Rally at Marlborough and Stoke Row on saturday and the Steam event at Amberley Museum and Copythorne on Sunday. I have posted pictures from these events on my blog at http://allsteamup.blogspot.co.uk Whilst I do not claim that the photos are of any particular quality should anyone want a copy of any of the pictures please let me know.

Looks like you missed the working fields at Oare. First appearance by imported Marshall portable and on a bench W&S Progress. Ploughers did not make it this year but M Farwell was using large Fowler crawler to steam cultivator. Also here the best restored Field Marshall I have ever seen. NB it is easy to miss this excellent section which is accessed a the bottom corner of the main field diagonally opposite the paygate but not visible from it. Just by craft tent where Mrs M won best craft shield this year.
