East Wales and Borders Vintage Enthusiasts
History of the Group

Welcome to the East Wales & Borders Vintage Enthusiasts' Website. We hope you enjoy its content and ease of use.

The Club was formed in 1993 and held its first meeting in the Hunters Moon Pub in January of that year; there were about 20 enthusiasts at the first meeting. But as news of the gathering got around, it was soon realised a larger venue would be required. A new venue was found at the Rising Sun Pub in the village of Pandy, which is situated just outside the market town of Abergavenny, Monmouthshire.

In January 2010 we moved our venue again. To the Park Hotel, Pandy, Nr Abergavenny

The aim is to bring together like-minded enthusiasts with a passion for restoring, exhibiting and working old tractors and machinery of yesteryear. And most of all to enjoy the occasion.

The Club meets every first Thursday of the month, except January. The Club invites guest speakers from all walks of life, holds quiz nights, plus other gatherings throughout the year and details can be found on the Events page.

We also hold three road runs a year, plus a Vintage auction and a Rally on the last weekend in June. This consists of vintage tractor pulling plus the usual Stationary Engines, Vintage Cars, Lorries, Tractors and Steam Engines. (See Events page for details) From our proceeds, donations are made to local charities which are nominated by Club members at the A.G.M each year.

The Club membership comes from a wide cross-section, including the Agricultural sector, Health professions, Office workers, Transport, Undertakers, Retired People, etc.

Non-members welcome, you don’t need to own any machinery, but we are sure once you have attended a couple of meetings you will be seeking advice from members as to what to purchase.
