Station description
Reg Ellmore's daughter Joan recalls him making frequent visits to meet up with others at Swiss Cottage (now demolished), Yarborough Estate near Jubilee Woods. Frank Bemrose, the game keeper, lived there. It was across the field from Captain Dudley Parker (Area Commander) at Cabourne Parva. Joan recalls visiting a hideout near there but can't remember where.
