You do know its not at Corbridge now?Its at Bywell, just across the river from Stocksfield. Take A69 east towards Hexham,from A1 roundabout,then take your 6th exit, signed Stocksfield and Bywell B6309. Follow that road for about 2 miles, at the bottom of a long hill you will come to Bywell crossroads, the village is directly ahead, but the showfield will likely be a right turn, then on your left.

Yes thanks already knew, mainly because when I went to book my classic merc into the show earlier this year it took an age for me to find the booking page and work out that it wasn’t in Corbridge!

Interested to see how new venue works. I almost gave up after 2016 fiasco of idling stationary for 1 1/2 hours!

Dont count on not having to queue at this venue too, its the same site dor the Northumberland County Show, which is in 2weeks time. The A69 becomes a car oark, literally. Although withnus being exhibitors and getting there early , we should be ok.

Total of 6 ways in to the ground should make things a whole lot better. But with it being our first year there problems may appear but just bear with us and if you have any ideas on how to improve things just let's us know so we can makes changes for next year.
And remember there is only a small number of volunteers helping on the day so things do go wrong every now and then. Look forward to seeing you all there not sure if my ZT will be there but we shall wait and see. Any questions or problems just give me a shout

Northumbria do an excellent job, and with limited resources, and greatly appreciated by all of us

What time is the show open, as we will most probably want to get their earlier to avoid any queues
