Introduced
to the show during the year of foot and mouth, 2001, when there was few places
where the modellers could exhibit. The indoor Model Engineering Exhibition is
now well established and integrated into the show. There are over 25 individuals
displaying some exquisite items. Many of them have taken hours to put together
with much care and attention to detail, including some matchstick models. Exhibits
include miniature steam engines and stationary engines, agricultural machinery
from days gone by as well as fairground exhibits, including fairground organs.
There are models of all kinds vehicles covering the history of transport. Some
of the machinery can be seen working, it is well worth a visit. The modellers
are very happy to chat they have a wealth of information.
Stationary Engine Display
The
stationary engine display now a familiar sight next to the public entrance. There
are more than 15 individually owned pieces of machinery most in full working order.
They include Lister, Ruston Hornsby, Wolsey and Amanco engines. There are also
horticultural implements and water pumps to see.
Miniature Steam Engine Display
Around
12 miniature steam engines will be on show and you may even be lucky enough to
see them in all their glory steaming around the showground. They add a real touch
of nostalgia.
Craft Fair
The indoor craft fair which is situated close to the public entrance is very
popular and always has something special to offer. The fair is organised for us
by Colin Hornsey who is secretary to the Country Crafts Association. All the craft
work is high quality and ranges from pictures, ornaments soft furnishings to home
made edible produce.
