Airship mooring block

Posted on 26 June 2012 by Andrew Grantham

An old mooring block for airships, on a former airship station which is now a golf course to the north of Howden in Yorkshire.

There are historical details on the town council website.

Airship mooring block, Howden

The staff at the golf course were happy to let us walk over to see the block, and seemed rather proud to have it on their site.
