Market Bosworth Steam Rally
Boston liked to attend steam rallies, but found transporting heavy equipment expensive, and in 1964 he founded a new annual 'Market Bosworth Steam Rally'. He wrote:
| “ | The idea then sprang to mind that if we could not get to a rally, why could a rally not come to us? Therefore in 1963 the Market Bosworth Steam Engine Rally was conceived and born, becoming a regular two day annual event held at Cadeby in August. This has proved a great success and also a considerable help with parish funds. | ” |
