The Club
The club started in 1997, it’s aims are the restoration and presentation of old stationary engines, or barn engines as they are sometimes known, including any relevant farm machinery and equipment, vintage collections and memorabilia. We have members with Barn engines, tractors, motor bikes, cars, working and static displays as well as models. For example we have collections of Tilley lamps, old cameras, a collection of milk churns, vintage lawn mowers, wooden toys, blow lamps, kitchen and laundry equipment, working miniature steam, cycles and auto cycles; in fact all things vintage!
Meetings
Meetings are held on the first Friday of every month, at Woodside Farm, Orton Lane, Twycross, Leicestershire CV9 3HA from 7.30PM onwards. In December the club holds a social event on a Saturday night, attendance is not obligatory, but all are made very welcome – tea and coffee come free of charge. Other refreshments are on sale and a raffle is held to help defray the cost of the evening.
Membership
Cost of membership is £15 per year and is limited to 250; the membership fee includes a £5,000,000 public liability insurance, covering any rally or show in the British Isles providing members adhere to the safety code.
