I'd been to the memorial before, but I hadn't been inside the village church - St Mary's, just up the lane. There's a small museum dedicated to the R101. Here are some pictures from the exhibition #R101 #Airship #Bedford

Could I put you in touch with our writers as I think they would like more detail on the role your great aunt had?
That's amazing. Do you have any information about any of the people who built or played a part in making the airship?
I will share your information with our committee and the team working on the play.
That's an amazing image. Has it been digitally enhanced?
All we can say at the moment is that a lot of research has been done and a script is being written. Once it is done we will share more information. We believe this will be really exciting. Would love to work with you guys if we can.
We hope you all had a happy #Valentine's Day. We hope you find/have found your muse.
