| During the Second World War 'The Racehorse', then known as 'The Black Swan', was one of the favourite meeting places for the young men of the 303rd Bomb Group of the U.S. 8th Air Force. After missions to Nazi occupied Europe and Germany, flown from nearby RAF Molesworth, many would spend the evening here at the Racehorse. Today RAF Molesworth is once again an active U.S. base and Chris and Shirley welcome among their customers the men and women who are based there. In an effort to keep the historic link alive Chris and Shirley have invited Keith to exhibit some of his work suring Friday lunchtimes. Keith can often be seen working on one of his latest paintings. |
