Our village is very lucky to have been given the opportunity to hold the 85th Cruckton Match here at Wykey. You will see accomplished ploughmen (includes women) doing their best to plough "well cut, uniform and straight" rows using a variety ofold and older  tractors and ploughs and even  horses drawing ploughs.  Perhaps there will be a steam engine if you are very lucky.

Go up to Wykey on 23rd September and enjoy the spectacle and the skill - it is all part of the enjoyment of living in the country.
