Entrance to Flying Display Site. The photo was taken looking south and from Google Earth this is confirmed by trees and shrubs being located on the east side of the road. The entrance to the field is ungated and if you look carefully about 90 yards to the north is an ungated gap into the fields on the right - to the west. If you drive down the road on Google Earth, just after Lawford Hill Farm you will see that these ungated field entrances still exist today. Entrance to the display field on the left 52 21 55”N 001 19 19”W. The show took place on Saturday 16 May 1932 and was given by Sir Alan Cobham's National Aviation Display. Google him up - he was a workaholic.
