About the Breed
The merry and frolicsome Cocker Spaniel, with his big, dreamy eyes and impish personality, is one of the world's best-loved breeds. They were developed as hunting dogs, but Cockers gained their wide popularity as all-around companions. Those big, dark eyes; that sweet expression; those long, lush ears that practically demand to be touched'no wonder the Cocker spent years as America's most popular breed. The Cocker is the AKC's smallest sporting spaniel, standing about 14 to 15 inches. The coat comes in enough colors and patterns to please any taste. The well-balanced body is sturdy and solid, and these quick, durable gundogs move with a smooth, easy gait. Cockers are eager playmates for kids and are easily trained as companions and athletes. They are big enough to be sporty, but compact enough to be portable. A Cocker in full coat rewards extra grooming time by being the prettiest dog on the block. These energetic sporting dogs love playtime and brisk walks.

After demonstrating a 'pairs' Airfield Defence scenario, Royal Air Force No.43 'Fighting Cocks' Squadron's Panavia Tornado F.3 ZE831/GG returns to RAF Leuchars during their 1994 'Battle of Britain' Air display
Now retired from service, all bar a handful of this Air Defence Variant of the 'MRCA' have been processed through BAE's facility at RAF Leeming where having been stripped of all usable parts saved for the ageing and still current Tornado GR.4 fleet, the remaining airframes were shredded!
In the meantime RAF Leuchars itself was closed and turned over to the Army.

The curious name of the junction derived its name from the 15th century Three Cocks Inn (a coaching inn, still extant, which in turn took its name from the armorial bearings of former local landowners, the Williams family of Old Gwernyfed.
The Junction was where the Midland Railway (Hereford, Hay and Brecon Branch) line from Hereford joined the ex Cambrian Railways (Mid Wales Railway line) from Penpontbren Junction to Talyllyn Junction. Three Cocks Junction was 48 miles and 18 chains from Moat Lane Junction and 100 miles 44 chains from 0 miles-Cambrian junction Whitchurch.
The station was situated within flat pastoral land and was approached on a wide leafy avenue, with the nearest settlement being Aberllynfi..
The station layout comprised of a large V with lines from the Hereford, Hay & Brecon Railway converging in from the east and the lines of the Mid Wales Railway converging in from the west, the southerly most line heading away south to Talyllyn Junction where trains diverged again for Brecon and the South Wales valleys.
The first 29 chains of the Hereford line was Cambrian owned. The Midland had running powers from here to Talyllyn Junction and Brecon. the station layout was simple enough, up and down platforms for both the Cambrian and Midland lines. Passenger facilities included a waiting room, ticket office and a refreshment room all the amenities being housed in a single building which was situated centre of the V-shaped platform. Three Cocks Signal Box was a Dutton Type 1 Brick platform signal box measuring 24'8" x 11' x 9' which opened on the 26th October 1890. internally it was fitted out with a Dutton & Co Frame with 40 levers. which was fitted facing the Cambrian mainline, for ease of observation the signalman had an all-round vision within the box.
An evocative shot of Oswestry allocated 2251 class 0-6-0 No 2287 (sub to Brecon) runs into Three Cocks Junction with an early morning Brecon to Hereford service on the 29th May 1961.

From Wikipedia....... "Cock Lane is a small street in Smithfield in the City of London, leading from Giltspur Street in the east to Snow Hill in the west.
In the medieval period, it was known as Cokkes Lane and was the site of legal brothels. 25 Cock Lane is the site where the supposed Cock Lane ghost manifested itself in 1762, and is also the place where writer John Bunyan, who wrote England's first best-seller, died from a fever in 1688."
