Bantock House Museum and Park travelled back in time with a weekend of wartime nostalgia on the 5th and 6th of September!
There were plenty of 1940s #re-enactors and visitors wearing themed costumes at this lovely Edwardian house and parkland and everyone got into the spirit of the time and joined in with the dancing!
In the tractor shed, Home Front re-enactors are seen here (pictured below) visiting a #Ystation display (wireless station) showing the work of radio interception during #WWII.
With lots of #vintage shopping for the enthusiasts, a scale model aeroplane and 1930s Hornby train exhibition, #1940s picnic and land girls display, this was an entertaining weekend at this scenic venue!
The 1940s Picture Post brings you news and views about 1940s events and re-enactments, your WWII stories, Bletchley Park and the radio spies, or voluntary interceptors, listening stations, vintage fashion, films, tv, dvd, in fact everything and anything about the 1940's!
