Description
The Avon Club, also known as Building 110, is an other ranks club built in 1912 for the Central Flying School at Upavon Camp. The structure is made of whitewashed concrete blocks with rock-faced concrete block quoins and features an asbestos slate roof. It stands two storeys high, with a main block consisting of six bays and single-storey cross wings that embrace a raised front terrace. The windows include tripartite 12-pane sashes, while the gables of the wings have Venetian windows with raised keystones and intermittent moulded strings. Lunette windows in the end bays of the main block illuminate the stairways. The building is topped with a central clock tower and gable stacks, and there is a further cross wing at the rear, along with various later alterations. Inside, the ground floor contains a cafeteria and bar, while the first floor features a billiard room. This building is part of an important group of structures that were purpose-built for the Central Flying School before the First World War.
