Swallowfield Acre
SWALLOWFIELD ACRE: Temporary aerodrome
Operated by: Berkshire Aviation Company
Location: Vicarage Road, Northwich
Period of operation: 6th to the 16th December 1920
NOTES: This was the last venue for the Berkshire Aviation Company for their 1920 tour. It started in January at Carlisle.
It is just my guess, but perhaps SWALLOWFIELD ACRE was part of the park on the west side of Vicarage Road?

Church Road then runs down over the railway and ends at the Witton Vicarage in posn 53 15 24"W 002 30 02"W. On the 50's mapping the last part of the road is labelled as Vicarage Road. I would suggest the 2 large fields to west of the Vicarage were probably used by the Berkshire Aviation Company.
