Oxfords of Cambridge and Rumor took out joint first place in the Fieldays shop window display competition, sharing a Good George brewery tour and a dinner package.

The theme of the displays was a throwback to what the stores would have looked like in the 1960s, when Fieldays began.

Madison’s, Footloose Shoes Cambridge, Deli on the Corner, Holmes & Co, Bettie Munroe and Cambridge Photo & Print also decorated their windows, adding a nostalgic flavour to the town and providing something different for locals and the many visitors who flock here for Fieldays.
