First off, I would prefer that this went to a scout troop or the like.
I have had this tent since the early '80's but I haven't used it for 10 years. It has been dry stored in its bags in my garage. It needs two adults/hefty teenagers to erect it, and my wife and I haven't been able to manage it for a long while. We downsized to the smaller Lichfield Classic.
It is a very large ridge tent with a large, four sided porch. The outer is a fawn cotton canvas and I have unrolled it this morning and cannot see anything wrong with it, but I cannot imply anything about the condition because I haven't used it for so long.
The inner is a thick nylon like mix with a sewn in grounsheet typical of Lichfield tents. It will sleep at least five in the inner or two to three scout leaders and a bundle of spare gear.
I once lent it to my daughters' Brownie pack for a camping holiday. There was a freak storm and every other tent on the site was blown flat. 14 Brownies and four adults spent the night in the tent.
All the poles seem to be there but the pegs and main guys are missing (used on other tents over the years). The pegs are essential but the main guys aren't, I only ever rigged them if bad winds threatened.
It would have to be collected from Wolverhampton.
If there isn't any interest I will be cutting the outer up to make a boom tent for my canoe.
