FolkMog – the Eastern Counties area for the Morgan Sports Car Club

The ‘Morgan Sports Car Club’ supports around 40 ‘area centres’ worldwide , the ‘Eastern Counties Centre’ being one of these. The centre is known as ‘FolkMog’, although that has not always been the case.
The Morgan Sports Car Club was formed in 1951 as the ‘4/4 Club’. The focus was on racing, rallying and treasure hunts, and the social side did not start to properly develop until the 1960’s. The London Centre was formed around 1965, followed by the Northern Centre in 1968, with the East Anglian Centre (now AngleMog) appearing on the scene in about 1969, being listed as a centre in ‘Miscellany’ in 1970. It was in 1970 that members voted for the club name to change to the ‘Morgan Sports Car Club’

Invited by Anglemog to join them for a picnic lunch at Ickworth a National Trust property in Horringer, near Bury St Edmunds on the 24th July 2011. Parking in front of the Rotunda, backing onto the Terrace wall and facing the Rotunda.
