The North Notts Ploughing Match is run by a committee of like-minded people interested in keeping the art of match ploughing alive.
Each March we host a vintage match to raise funds for the main match, traditionally held in September — horses, vintage tractors and modern reversibles side by side in the same field, just as it’s been since 1945.
