Here are our top picks for the coming days:

1. Live Steam

Local residents will be able to see steam power in action on the mainline this Sunday (July 14) as The Shakespeare Express makes its way through South Warwickshire again.

The express will travel from Birmingham Moor Street to Stratford-upon-Avon twice during the day.

It will pass through through Henley-in-Arden on its journeys south and through Claverdon when it travels north.

On each trip the express - hauled by either 7029 Clun Castle or 5043 Earl of Mount Edgcumbe - will pass south through Henley-in-Arden, returning through Hatton on the journey back into Birmingham.

The festivities kick off on Friday 12 July, at 4pm, running until 10pm, and continues on Saturday, 13 July, from 12 noon to 10pm.
