We would like to invite you to the WBCVC’s autumn visit to the Hungerford Antiques Arcade, as seen on Bargain Hunt and many other TV programmes. The visit will take place, on Sunday, 22nd September. We are now in our 8th year of this twice yearly event (May & September).
Those of you that have attended this event before will remember the warm welcome the club receives, from Adrian and Rita, the Arcade traders, and general public.
We have been asked if we could get to the Arcade around 10:00am, in order to get us settled before the High Street gets busy. The Arcade opens at 11am on a Sunday. We will park the vehicles in the front of the Hungerford Arcade, as per usual.
Adrian, Rita and all the traders in the Antiques Arcade are really looking forward to meeting the WBCVC again and our classic vehicles’ so please try and attend if you can.
As well as the Antiques Arcade Rafters Cafe there are several places to get lunch in Hungerford, (3 course or snack), or maybe a picnic or stroll by the side of the Kennet & Avon Canal, weather permitting, or a leisurely trip along the canal in the Rose of Hungerford narrow boat.
