The former main London airport is an appropriate venue to hold the annual Croydon Aviation and Military Collectors’ Fair.
Run since the 1990s by aviation enthusiasts Dave Sutton and Alistair White, the event is run in conjunction with the Croydon Airport Society, a charity which aims to keep the history of the aerodrome alive.
This fair on Sunday, January 7, uses the Grade II-Listed Aerodrome Hotel, built at the same time as the airport and situated on the site of the old airfield.
