The ex Kemble snow-blower was done away with at Birds.
The aircraft in the link however is WF825 (not '826) and for it's fate see:

The Javelin is XH767 which came from the air cadets at Worcester
The Meteor came from the air cadets at Lyneham
Monkton Farleigh was just outside of Bath
The collection was split up as permission could not be gained from the council
Do not think the Hunter and Meteor NF14 were at Monkton Farleigh
Worth looking at the rest of the photo set

Found this on a website

Whats confusing me is does this Meteor still exist? UK serials gives the following
WF826 Gloster Meteor T7 d/d 26/06/1951, aircraft converted to a snow blower 23/02/1965 at No.5 MU Kemble, scrapped 1974, to Birds, Long Marston
What is the very tidy Meteor and any idea of the Javelins serial and fate?
