A NORTH Yorkshire town has been transported back to the 1940s this weekend with a celebration of the music, food and fashion from the decade.
The Pickering 1940s event, now in its second year, has seen Pickering Town CIC pull together the town’s tourist attractions, businesses and community groups to provide a fun-packed event.
The Pickering Yarnbombers have also been getting into the ‘make do and mend’ spirit by recycling donated wool to decorate the town.
Alongside the town’s activities, Eden Camp, an original 1940s POW camp near Old Malton, has been brought life its existing historical exhibitions with live displays, period entertainment, vintage vehicles, military re-enactments, demonstrations, stalls, food and family activities.
