NOTES: We have Mr Graham Frost, a great friend of this 'Guide', to thank for pointing out this location.
Clearly a model area club, which, like so many others, has increased in both popularity and facilities on offer in recent years. Hardly surprising I suppose as the range of models to be seen is quite staggering. Indeed, I reckon the largest examples can be quite favourably compared with many home-built light aircraft.
This Club can trace its roots back to 1945.
