Twas a cold and wet event
But still worth the day out though:)
This is at Walton Hall museum in Stanford-le-Hope.
A very interesting place.
Mind you is it a sign of showing your age when you have known half the exhibits to be in use in your youth :lol
A Bean
Old Bean
Mamories :lol
I can remember an old gentleman using one of these in Hampstead
Henderson straight 4

PS
Richard on that last link, if you go to the "Rougham wings and wheels" you'll find the original 'Swallow' and a few other odds |

Hi
Any more pics of the great collection of motor rollers they have there? Been meaning to go and look at them, have been in touch with them about the rollers in the past.
Cheers

It might be worth keeping in touch with them at Walton hall.
A rumour, hopefully only a rumour, was going around from a couple of regulars that the place is up for sale.
If it is we hope it's as a museum, but the treand around here is to flaten anything and build build build, even if they don't sell
As to anymore photos, only the ones in the link, but I'll try and get over there again when the weather is better.

Just noticed I didn't take a photo of my Rag Top conversion

Don't apologise for you aircraft pictures Roger. You have some really nice shots. I particularly liked this rather obvious favourite..
