“Visitors to the show will be able to enjoy the vast cross-section of exhibits,” said Brian Johnson, museum trustee and event organiser.

“We want people to feel as though they have stepped back in time when they walk into the museum.

“Photographers will be spoilt for choice as there will be many fine examples of vintage buses, steam engines, lorries, military vehicles, motorcycles, cars and stationary engines plus much more on show, and the backdrop of traditional buildings makes the scene at Amberley timeless and authentic.”

The museum’s wood yard will be in full operation, and the resident Smith Rodley steam crane will be in action lowering timber onto a traditional saw bench, powered by a large McLaren steam engine, which has been shipped to the UK from New Zealand.
