The 2007 Single Cylinder Gathering was hosted by "Tracks Across The Field" near Petersfield in Hampshire.  This rally was run by the Wessex Historic Tractor & Machinery Club over the weekend 18-19 August.  The weather was wet on the Saturday but brighter on the Sunday!

Excluding Marshalls, a total of 20 single cylinder tractors took part, entered by 17 owners.  Part of the reason for holding the Single Cylinder Gathering in Hampshire this year was to attract owners from the south of the country and, of the 17, eight had not attended a Single Cylinder event before.  In addition, seven Marshalls/Fowler, all from the southern counties, were entered.

The culmination of the rally was a 'Crawl Past', and many of the single cylinders joined the parade around the working area.
