Wilstead Hill
Note: This map only gives a very rough idea of where the actual location was
WILSTEAD HILL: Gliding site
Note: Both of these pictures are from my Google Earth © derived database.
Operated by: The Bedford Gliding and Flying Club
Location: Roughly adjacent to the A6, about 4.5nm S to SSE of Bedford town centre
Period of operation: 1930s only?
NOTES: We have Mr Graham Frost, a great friend of this 'Guide', to thank for providing some evidence of this gliding club.
To date, (May 2022), scant evidence appears to exist, except that the members built a 80x50ft hangar. So, clearly quite a going concern in its time.
If anybody can kindly offer more advice and information, this will be much appreciated.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
