In photos: Vintage vehicle show attracts crowds to Burnham-On-Sea

Dozens of vintage vehicles trundled into Rooksbridge, near Burnham-On-Sea, over the weekend as they took part in the annual two-day Sedgemoor Vintage Show.

After being cancelled last summer due to bad weather, the organisers were anxious for this year's event to be a success - and they were not disappointed.

"We've had a steady number of visitors on both days," Francis Chilcott, pictured right, told Burnham-On-Sea.com.

"Last week's rain meant we were unable to have a marquee as planned but everything else went ahead to schedule and there was a wide range of interesting vehicles on show."

Tractors, motorcycles, cars and steam engines were on display at the popular event, which was held at the banger racing fields between Rooksbridge and Brent Knoll. Burnham charity BARB was also fundraising at the event.
