The Leyland Society Gathering 9th July 2017
The 2017 Leyland
Society Gathering will be held at the Old Warden
Aerodrome site of the Shuttleworth Trust near
Biggleswade, Bedfordshire on Sunday 9th July 2017.
The site is both an operational airfield and also
the home of the well-known Shuttleworth Collection
of vintage aircraft, many of which are maintained in
flying condition. In addition to aircraft on
display, visitors can tour the comprehensive
workshops where aircraft from the collection are
undergoing restoration or maintenance. Alongside
the airfield is an extensive Swiss Garden which is
an outstanding example of the Regency style of
landscape gardens.
We hope this new
venue, in a more southerly location will permit
vehicle owners and enthusiasts who have not been
able to attend previous events at Leyland the
opportunity to join our annual Gathering. The site
has a large area of hard standing opposite the main
hangers for the vehicle display and there is a café
where refreshments can be purchased. Please note
that normal entry charges will apply on the day and
will cover the vehicle display, aircraft collection
or Swiss Gardens. Two free entry tickets will be
provided for each vehicle entry but additional
tickets can be purchased on arrival.
You do not have to be
a member of the Society to enter a vehicle for our
display we welcome all Leylands so if you have a
truck or bus we would be pleased to see you at our
event in July. The entry form can be downloaded
here
and please return it with 2 SAEs to Gary Dwyer at
the address at the top of the form. Overnight
parking for entrants will be available on Saturday
and Sunday if required but this must be specified in
advance on the vehicle entry form.
