A free event that was expected to be held at a Herefordshire airfield has been cancelled due to "adverse" weather forecasts.

Herefordshire Aero Club were set to host an Aviators & Artisans event today (April 21) from 10am until 3pm at Shobdon Airfield, with artisan makers and retro stall holders in attendance.

Stallholders were set to include paper crafts, handmade jewellery, and gift cards.

Vintage aircrafts had been encouraged to fly in from far and wide for the event, which was to celebrate the golden age of aviation.

The artisan market was set to be a first for the airfield, which has held other large-scale events before.

In a post on Facebook, Herefordshire Aero Club said the vintage fly-in and market has been postponed until May 5 due to forecasted rain.

The airfield and cafe will be open as usual to the public today.
