There’s also a great selection of beers and ales available plus great food and plenty of stalls and trade stands to browse.

The Transport Museum Wythall will also be running a free return shuttle bus from Tamworth to Statfold Country Park on both days.

The current list of beers include Wye Vally HPA, Wye Valley Butty Back, Enville Ale, Holden Golden Glow, Sharps Solar Wave, Pale Brummie, Bitter Brummie, Gold Brummie, Stout Brummie and Blonde Brummie.
