On the weekend of March 16 and 17, the Trades Trail took place from the Bathurst Showground, showcasing everything from whip-cracking, blacksmithing, penny-farthing riding and woodworking to sandsculpting and patchworking.
According to one of the coordinators of the Heritage Trades Trail, Sandy Bathgate, the event was a huge success overall.
"It's been fantastic, we're so pleased. There were a huge number of exhibitors and a big crowd and everyone had a great time," he said.
Of these crowds, Mr Bathgate said approximately half were from out of town.
"It's been about 50/50. So 50 per cent are from 2795, and we've had people from the South Coast, Newcastle and even South Australia," Mr Bathgate said.
A Western Advocate representative attended the event and snapped some photos of stallholders and strollers throughout the day.
