Woolpit Steam at Wetherden, Suffolk - 3rd June 2007

For some reason this event is known as Woolpit Steam, despite it clearly being much closer to Wetherden than it is to its namesake, which is way over on the other side of the A14. Nosher has passed its promotional signs for several years, before finally deciding to have a scope this year. Isobel meets up there, having driven over from Cambridge, for a couple of hours poking around.
