Unlike many villages for whom a village day is a couple of stalls in the high street, Ashtead village goes 1 step further with a field full of stalls, displays, rides and things to do. Of course of interest to us would be the large display of vintage, classic, retro and American cars along side a brace of Routemasters (from Cobham bus museum) and a display of classic military vehicles, all of which processed from the high street to Barnet wood recreation ground.
