YoungTimer Car Show Supported by Carole Nash - Bank Holiday Monday - 30th May 2016

Celebrating cherished classics from the 1970s and 1980s, the show opens at 10.00am with a static display and in-formal concours within the walled Elizabethan pleasure gardens of Gawsworth Hall. Entry is open to cars and motorcycles of a model type manufactured between 1970 and 1990, or fitting the ethos of a Youngtimer classic. Gawsworth Hall, an ancient manor house wrapped in romance, intrigue and great charm, has been attracting car enthusiasts for many years. The first recorded event was held in the grounds by the Manchester Automobile Club in 1902. Since its revival in 1998, the annual May Bank Holiday Rally has grown to become the season opening event in the region’s motoring calendar, attracting a wide range of interesting and historic vehicles whilst providing a unique garden party atmosphere. Cars which were nearly new in those inaugural years of the Rally are now classics in their own right, so it’s fitting that they should have an event of their own, bringing together like minded enthusiasts. The event is supported by Carole Nash insurance, who will be providing live music on the front lawn during the day. The Orchard Tea Room is open all day for drinks and light refreshments. The house will open at midday. On a tour of Gawsworth Hall’s historic rooms you will see fine paintings, fur-niture, sculpture and William Morris stained glass. The Hall was home to Mary Fitton, regarded by some scholars to be the true author of ‘Shakespeare’s’ sonnets to her ’fair young man’ during her time in the royal court of Elizabeth 1st. The house later became the subject of one of the most famous duels in English history.
