    I like buying old negatives, I didnt know what was on these today, but was pleasantly surprised once I had scanned them. Posting them here for obvious reasons, but if you know any info or details, let me know :) Image (2) (2).jpg Image (2) (3).jpg Image (2) (5).jpg Image (3) (2).jpg Image (3) (3).jpg Image (3) (5).jpg Image (7).jpg Image (8).jpg Image (10).jpg Image (11).jpg

    The flight of 6 Lancasters have the H2S radar cowl to the underside of the fuselage so can only have been taken summer 1943 at the earliest.

    7 looks a lot like Cadwell looking back towards the clubhouse.

    A few other look like Cadwell too but not as it is now.

    i have googled other images and im pretty certain thats what it is. I thought it looked like an architects model of something taken through glass

    I should add, the photos came from Chesterfield market, so are probably from a house clearance in the locality

    I'd never have known that, i reckon they are from the 60s though looking at the other cars
