RAF Bridgnorth was a Recruit training school, with no airstrip. Year is a guess. After many years as a Gate Guardian at various locations around the UK and being used during the filming of the movie Battle of Britain the aircraft was restored to airworthy condition. Remains airworthy today (2017) as G-MKVB and based at Duxford with HAC.
