Cardington

These huge buildings were built to house the massive airships R100 and the ill fated R101. Now (December 2009) Shed No1 is up for sale which was home to the R101 (the R stands for Rigid) I feel it right to dedicate a Gallery to these historic buildings. I'll add to this as soon as possible.
