Triumph66 1,256 #14 Posted June 7, 2015 Look like a fascinating place to visit when I am next back in Sussex. Was it a fighter or a bomber base during the war? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pmackellow 2,738 #16 Posted June 7, 2015 Great photos Nigel that looks like it is worth a visit somewhen 1 nigel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph66 1,256 #17 Posted June 7, 2015 Thanks Nigel for the info. It' would make sense that it was a fighter base due to its location near to Lnodon and the Luftwaffe fighter bases in Northern France. By the way your Landy conversion looks the DB! Cheers 1 nigel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeadExam 1,783 #18 Posted June 7, 2015 From the looks of you it seems the Landy is giving you quite the ride! Great pictures, so much history, valor, and lives surrendered for the cause 1 nigel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #19 Posted June 7, 2015 Just a note on the Corgi motorcycle. Made by Brockhouse at Southport, along with the BMB President and Indian Brave motorcycle. My father worked there during and after WW1. We lived about 100 yards away. 2 Triumph66 and nigel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
