Sad to see the RAF No 1 Mess gone without a murmur. It was built from drawings of the mess at Poona by legend , hence the covered walkways and storm drains.
There used to be a metal model of the 'Cathedral' which was put on the plinth on special occasions- it normally lived inside by the entrance to the Bar.
Happy days 69-72
