Default Acton Scott Threshing

I went to the Acton Scott threshing at the weekend, had a nice day but didn't get many pictures. Its on again this weekend if anyones interested.











It wasn't just Threshing, The heavy horses were also in action giving ploughing demonstrations.

Mike's picture was last year, although I was there when Ben was taking his fantastic pictures. That Fowler is a beautiful machine.
