Filching Manor Motor Museum
April 2018
Private Tour of Filching Manor House, Motor Museum and Bluebird K3 workshop.
Ian Bruce arranged a private tour on behalf of Kent Sevens on Sunday, 1st April 2018 which comprised a guided tour, by the
owner Karl Foulkes-Halbard of the Manor house, the Motor Shed and the Workshop where Bluebird K3 is housed. The Manor House dates
back to 1450AD and is still lived in today. It also contains much motoring memorabilia with some interesting history. There are two
motor sheds, as Karl refers to them, and these contain a wealth of interesting items as can be seen in the photos below. Finally,
we were given a guided tour around the K3 Bluebird workshop which houses the original Bluebird that Sir Malcolm Campbell used to set
three World Water Speed Records. For more comprehensive information visit their website here.
