Is it the place near Alton? Looks interesting, and nicer roads from Newbury to Alton. Quote

Looks like it could be a good meet! We've done Podium Place before too (Bone Lane, Newbury) then from there to Bird In Hand 1 Quote
Glen_I Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 Another possibility: https://www.brownsclassics.co.uk/meets-shows Generally the 1st Saturday of the month. I enjoy this one, only been a handful of times though. Any money made from the selling of burgers and drinks go to the Air Ambulance. I'm aiming to pop over this Saturday morning if anyone is about?? 1 Quote

Looks interesting, and nicer roads from Newbury to Alton. Yes they meet as Classic Car Sundays 2 to 4:30pm, 1st Sunday in month held at Departure Lounge Cafe, Basingstoke Rd, Alton, GU34 4BH. When weathers good they get a large turn out, mostly on grass and on a slope so not good when wet. Season April to October, weather permitting. Must admit I questioned the address, but a good venue. 2 Quote

Sorry I was so looking forward to this meet up but sprung a leak on petrol line, 10 bar leaks are not easy. Going to try to attend the Alton bash tomorrow. 1 Quote
