Ploughing Match

Following the recent bad weather, we have made the very difficult decision to cancel this years Ploughing Match.

The consensus was that the current ground conditions and forecast would make it difficult to run the event safely and to the standard that we would like. We realise that this will be a huge disappointment to you all.
