Historic Aircraft Preservation Society (circa 1962)?

Does anyone know where this group was located during 1962? They were the ones responsible for saving the FAA Museum's FG-1A Corsair when it went up for disposal with the Cranfield College of Aeronautics in 1962. They kept the Corsair "somewhere" until 1963 when it was loaned to the FAA Museum at Yeovilton.

Any ideas where they might have stored the ol' bird during the year prior to its going to the FAA Museum?
