Motor enthusiasts from across the region gathered in Silloth over the weekend for a vintage fair.
The Silloth Vintage Rally began in 2000 and takes place on Silloth Green, at the very heart of the town.
The event is run by a small committee of enthusiasts, with some of the founder members still involved today.

Exhibits and attractions have been varied over the years. This year’s event saw steam engines, vintage cars, motorbikes, tractors, commercial and military vehicles and stationary engines arrive in Silloth as part of the ever-growing number of vehicles that come to the event.
The popular rally attracts hundreds of exhibits from across Cumbria and further afield.
