If you've visited before, why not check what has changed since you last looked? Last update: 8th August 2010.

in Memoriam: Tony Bradfield
Sadly we have to tell you that Tony Bradfield recently passed away. Tony joined the club in 2005 and loved the peace, tranquility and company the club and Setley pond offered. Unfortunately health problems meant that model making was becoming difficult to cope with even at that time. During the present year his health had been declining as a result of a stroke, and he recently had entered a nursing home. Our sympathy to his widow, Kit Bradfield, who derived a large measure of comfort from knowing that Tony enjoyed his visits to Setley.
