Ballonie good story but you must have went up the A48 A436/A417. A40 ish and up Birdlip so long ago it must have took hours rather you than me back then.
Hi Mate.
I have a horrible feeling that was the old A40 Ermine St in those days. The turning mentioned was the lane (it was then) to Little Witcombe.
Just looked at an old map and it shows the main road A437 up to Gloucester then through Brockworth, at the Cross Hands straight on to Birdlip, then we went Andoversford A40 on. Do not remember having a map ether. The one I have in my hand was given free in 24 parts with Wonderful Britain 15mile to the inch, just found out it was published in 1929, god it is older than me.
All the best
Balloonie.
