Cheeky Question.
Does anyone have a trailer parking area near Old Warden where we could safely leave our van and trailer for the day?
Thinking of going to the de Havilland fly in at Shuttleworth 10th September. They are asking for Austin 7’s to attend.
Ours is not really up to driving the whole journey, but it’s happy to ride on it’s trailer!

Like you were trailering our Ruby to the event from Downham Market , but making a weekend of it by camping at Henlow Bridge Lakes campsite. It's only 5 mile to Shuttleworth. Or call Shuttleworth direct, they may have a spot behind a Hangar ???

There is no shortage of parking at Shuttleworth, but the Hare & Hounds in Old Warden has a large car park, so they might be amenable, particularly if you choose to eat there. Food is good.
PS The Cock at Broom has a camp ground behind its carpark.

If any of you get the chance there are plenty of nice roads in the area to explore. Out to Broom Ireland and Shefford are all nice. I have travelled many of them both in cars and with our traction engine.
