The event is an annual fixture in vintage vehicle enthusiasts’ calendar and draws entries from a wide area.

Commenting, Dr Whiteford said:

“I was pleased to be able to drop in on the New Byth Rally and meet with some of the exhibitors there.

“This event has been going for many years now and I congratulate the organisers on another excellent turnout of vintage vehicles.

“I was also pleased to be able to drop in on the Yes Scotland stall at the event which those staffing it told me had been very busy dealing with interested members of the public.”
