A woodshed in Surrey England

[911MRP]

Perhaps apt the famous Tyrell woodshed is being saved and moved about 50 miles south of its original location near the A3 Surrey England to a lawn on Goodwood track, which given that's where the young JYS was spotted and signed up to Tyrell’s racing organisation leading to success for both team and driver at the pinnacle of world motorsport.

Nice period film I received embedded in a message telling the story about the shed’s move from Magneto:

Brooklands Museum roughly a handful of miles from the woodshed’s original site couldn’t afford the cost to relocate it. A lot more people will see it at Goodwood Circuit than its current (original) site or even Brooklands, I suppose. At least the risk of it being demolished and lost forever has lessened due to the financially successful Goodwood events now being places to be seen at … who knows maybe some of the folks who dress-up in period outfits to swan-about during the Goodwood Revival weekends might even get to know what the old woodshed is. There are still motoring enthusiasts who attend who will appreciate it too, of course.

JYS pictured at the RAC with one of the cars during his 80th birthday lunch alongside a famous guest who had a palatial house (a few palaces actually) very near to the clubhouse — she was the club’s patron.

Expect she was much more familiar with the Goodwood horse racing track than the motor racing circuit despite both being on the Duke’s family’s estate in Sussex.
