The little machine has been on duty each day when flying has been possible, and a large number of local residents have taken a view of Bradford-on-Avon from an unaccustomed angle. On the OS Map the Grove is in Freshford on the south side of the River Avon – Winsley is on the north side. But taking it at face value opposite the Grove on the Winsley Road puts the field in vicinity – 51 21 00”N 002 17 47”W
