About the work

Jack L. Airy seems to have been a talented amateur, for his career is not recorded. He contributed eight watercolours of sites in Suffolk to the Recording Britain scheme; the stiff, somewhat naive drawing style typical of his work is very much in evidence here.

Parham, a sleepy Suffolk village, earned a brief moment of fame during the Second World War when it became the site of an American Air Force base.
