Berrisford

E.J. Berrisford


History

Ernest James Berrisford (or possibly Beresford) built a motorcycle based aeroplane in 1912, probably intended to be used as an act in public displays as Berrisford had a motorcycle circus act under the name "The Great Diavolo". Nothing appears to have come of this.

Berrisford had earlier associations with aviation, acting as assistant to a "Captain" Clayton of Mansfield.
