Classic Cars at Killerton 05/27/2018 Killerton House in Devon was the impressive back-drop to the 2018 Killerton Classic Car Day a couple of weeks ago, and I was there to photograph the event. I have visited lots of car shows with my cameras over the years, including one in America (see a previous blog), but few have had such a stunning back-drop as the National Trust Killerton Estate.
