Vintage Ploughing Match at Sulgrave

a16-09-25-12c

On Sunday 25th September 2016 at Dial House Farm, Sulgrave, early rain was eventually replaced by bright sunshine for a vintage ploughing match. Tractors and ploughs, some more than 80 years old, were seen and heard to be  running perfectly and still able to plough a straight furrow in the hands of their experienced owners.

    Dennis Gascoigne was my uncle and loved these old tractors, having a wonderful collection of his own.
    Were any of these once owned by him?
