Kirton was briefly No 2 GC either before or after Spitalgate was (can't remember which was first) and before the two centres merged to form CGS at Syerston.
Before the merger No 1 GC had been at Swanton Morley since Jan 1962 after its former base at Hawkinge was closed, my brother having started one of the last courses to be held there but didn't solo there due weather so he finished at 613 Halton which was only 10 miles from our home.
