The Teme Valley Vintage Club had held a road run since 2002 and this year 84 vehicles took part.

This year the annual tractor and 4x4 road run took place recently and started at Benson Yard in Knighton by kind permission of Roy and David Edwards.

After leaving the start the route when up Knighton’s Broad Street, then via the Rhose to Llangunllo and then onto the Beacon Hill.

The halfway stop was at Felindre by kind permission from Mr Bright.

The vehicles then went down the Shropshire side back to Benson’s Yard where they started.

This year the run was in aid of Farming Minds and the Macmillan Renton Unit in Hereford and both will be receiving a donation of £500 as a result of the run.
