Pictures from Staffordshire's history - selected from the Staffordshire Past-Track Project
From cattle and sheep to Chilis and Hives | |
| | | Weston Park - eighteenth century
The scene at Weston Park on the weekend of the V2003 Festival was a little different to the view shown here! Where cattle once grazed, the Hives now rock.
On August 16th and 17th, thousands of festival goers flocked to the park to see bands, including the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Coldplay, playas part of V2003.
