This photograph was taken in about 1928, when Alan Cobham brought one his aeroplanes to Higham Ferrers.
Walter Evans Powell, the local policeman, took several of his children along to see the aeroplane, an Avro 504K. Another aircraft can just be seen behind sporting the logo of Surrey Flying Services.
