Brougham Hall Wartime Weekend Penrith 5th-8th May 2022

 

 

 

After 3 years absence due to the pandemic, this popular event returned to Brougham Nall,  the wartime home of the 35TH TANK BRIGADES OF THE 79TH ARMOURED DIVISION during WW2 and where they developed the Canal Defence Light - one of Hobart's funnies tank modifications.

The interactive living history displays are one of the show's strengths and were as popular as ever, with a record 6,000 people attending over the weekend.

​

Phantom's display was busy, and included our 1943 jeep and recreation of a Phantom patrol in Normandy.
