Fairford,
Gloucestershire
Gliding peacefully across beautiful countryside
early on a summer morning, or in the evening
is an unforgettable experience. Unlike other
aircraft, you can watch the hot air balloon
being assembled before your eyes - just
like a giant tent ! Then climb aboard and
admire the view from the basket - no doors
closed, or windows to sit behind, it's all
out in the fresh air. Fantastic !
The
market town of Fairford lies 12 miles east
of Cirencester and about 6 miles west of
Lechlade-on-Thames along the A417 and close
to the River Coln. The town has many quaint
cottages with 17th and 18th century three
storey stone buildings remaining as well
as former coaching inns. The military air-base
of R.A.F. Fairford is located nearby and
is the location at which the annual International
Air Tattoo takes place in July. A bridge
now spans the river in place of the original
‘ford’ crossing.
