Great Eversden
Note: I think this map is roughly correct, but will be happy to be corrected.
GREAT EVERSDEN: Private airstrip
Location: N of A603, S of minor road linking Great Eversden & Little Everseden, 6nm SW of Cambridge centre
Period of operation: 1970s to early 1990s?
NOTES: I collected the Tiger Moth G-ADJJ for restoration from here in July 2002. It was stored in a hangar, but any sign of a runway had long since disappeared. However, in the mid 1970s it appears that four aircraft were based here: D.H.82A Tiger Moth G-ADJJ (BB819) - (the same Tiger Moth I moved in 2003 to be restored to flying condition). Plus the Druine D.31 Turbulent G-ARRU, the Jodel DR.1050 Ambassadeur G-ATEV and another DH82A Tiger Moth G-AZDY.
If you would like to see a picture of the Tiger Moth G-ADJJ resplendent in its restored condition, see my listing for WATCHFORD FARM. There is another picture of G-ADJJ being delivered, after collection, to LITTLE GRANSDEN.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
