The visitors to an annual vintage gathering were transported back in time at the weekend.

Westbury Transport and Vintage Gathering, held over two days at the top field in Westbury Road, Bratton, was bustling with nostalgia as hundreds dropped in to take a trip down memory lane.

Southwick couple Mike and Jane Lee, whose hobbies are collecting vintage motors, brought their newly purchased immaculate Morris Eight to make its debut.

Jane said: "We only bought this lovely example just at the end of last year and it’s the first time out at a show. We love coming to this Westbury show as it's not only local but it’s a show with great atmosphere.”

One of the highlights of the gathering was the appearance of a speedway machine.

Former Trowbridge resident Roger Hewitt returned to the area bringing with him his immaculate Jawa speedway machine.

Roger said: "This bike was the front runner in its day. Manufactured in Czechoslovakia, these machines proved to be very successful worldwide in the 1960s and 70s, taking many of the top riders to World Championship glory.”

Regulars at the show were the Couldrake family who specialise in military displays.

This year the Dilton Marsh-based family brought their Gulf War exhibits for the public to view.

Tony Couldrake said: "In the past we have brought World War One then World War Two exhibits to the show. This year we decided to centre on the Gulf War to make a change.”

And keeping in with the military theme was Bratton’s Ray Davis who brought his Austin vintage car in its ARP livery.

Organiser Keith Miller said: “This is our 23rd year running and the event keeps growing every year. We have people coming from all over the country including London, Devon and from the North. All the work is done by volunteers and we are a non-profit event and so the small entrance fee is to cover expenses.”
