Rohan et Cie

From the earliest days of Waddon Aerodrome until finally being replaced by W.H.Smith in the final years of the airport, the company operated a book and magazine stall, post office and even at times as a booking agent. The shop sold postcards with it's own photographs of the airport activitioes and both local as well as visiting aircraft.
