Take a look at our list of Rowell Fair attractions dating all the way back to 1906! Some of you might remember the elephant that was part of Rowell Fair, but did you know that back in 1906, we actually had ostriches on the streets of Rothwell? 😯

Recently, we re-discovered an old document that used to part of the old Rowell Fair website – a list of all the Fun-Fair attractions year-by-year!

Ostriches and so much more at this link! πŸ˜‰

Somehow, the original ‘slipped between the cracks’ when we re-designed the website earlier this year! So, our thanks go to Society member, Edd Hirst, who got in touch to remind us of this interesting collection. Edd also added some more detail to bring it up to date. Thanks Edd! πŸ‘

We’ve taken the opportunity to retype it, and you’ll notice there are still a few gaps! πŸ€”. If you can help fill them, or you notice an error or omission, just drop us a line on our contact page.
