Probably out of date info, but there used to be one based at Compton Abbas ... or at least, used to offer pleasure flights from there.

...or you could jump on a R***air or e***jet flight to Berlin and fly the Stearman at Tempelhof Airport, arguably the most wonderful airport in the world! Google Berlin Tempelhof Aviators , the very nice flight school there.
