PHOTOGRAPHIC memories of Ribchester field day are being sought for a special exhibition to be staged at this summer's event.

Organisers of the ever-popular event are hoping to borrow as many old photographs as possible taken during field days in the past for a display at the 1996 event on June 15.

Chairman of the field day committee Mr Chris Kelly said: "There was a time last year when the field day came under threat because of a lack of support and helpers.

"Now, plans are well underway for this year's event again but we are looking for help to put on this display of field days from the past."

The display will be held in the marquee on field day and anyone who can help with exhibits should contact Claire Davis on 01254 245316.
