Whilst I
was at Knole I came across this beautifully restored VW Camper Van JRM 574N . Bill, the owner very
kindly moved the van to a more attractive part of the park so I could take these shots. I have put a large number of shots on my blog for Bill.

Knole Park Deer
I visited
the parkland again today, this is a place that my wife and I love to come to at
least a couple of times a year. This is our first winter visit, and the deer
are all in their winter coats.

This is a full size model of a Spitfire, normally used as a gate guard. It was parked out on the apron.
An article regarding this hanger can be found here.
A very good article on the making of the film can be found here.

Vulcan V Bomber being refurbished.
1969 the film The Battle of Britain was released, Duxford
was used to film the action scenes. One of Duxford’s WW1 hangers was blown up
in the making of the film, this was long before CGI. The remaining hangers on
the site now have a preservation order on them. My shot of the hanger doors is
from a similar hanger still on the site to the one blown up in the film.
