Bin boys and girls will be back on the grid for this year’s Three Horseshoes Wheelie Bin Grand Prix on Saturday.

The road between the Hernhill pub and Mount Ephraim main gates will be closed from noon, and the flag will go down on the first pair of race-honed bins at about 1pm.

While there will be teams going for the fastest time ever over the quarter-mile course, there are also classes for the best designs, which in the past have featured amazingly detailed bin-based models of a Spitfire, German U-boat, The Titanic and an English Electric Lightning.

There will be an outside beer tent and barbecue and music after the racing from the Boughton Blues Connection.

This years race is in aid of Help for Heroes
