Welcome to Minting and Gautby Parish Council
The Minting Classic Motor Show
held on September 8th 2024 attracted over 170 cars, tractors, motorbikes and static engines. A dull start turned into a sunny afternoon, with the many visitors admiring the immaculately kept vehicles and browsing the stalls selling everything from motor accessories to locally donated cakes. £2,200 was raised for St Barnabas Hospice, well ahead of last year's total. Committee chairman Ken Smith thanked all those who had contributed to a very successful day.
