Drive Out to Burwash Manor

Friday, 22nd August 2025

Several cars departed Baldock Car Park (one joining at the destination) to drive Andy Beavan's well designed 30-mile route to Burwash Manor. The navigator in the lead car was an 8-year-old grandson and the navigator in one of the stream of cars further back was a granddaughter starting senior school when the schools go back.

Well, we have always said that we would like a younger element to the club.

Burwash Manor is two courtyards of converted farm buildings housing a collection of independent, unique shops, a café with both indoor and outdoor seating, and beauty salon, and when we visited, lots of wasps. Refreshments were taken, some indoors, and all then departed refreshed in mind and body.

"I would like to thank all the members who came to the Aston Car Gathering yesterday, we had perfect weather and a good turnout, making a useful amount for St Mary's Church with your donations for tea and cakes. It was pleasing that we got a good clutch of MG Midgets together see photo :- 1931 C type,
1933 J2, 1935 PB and 1933 J1 and many other interesting cars."
