Westland Wallace ?

[Monksilver]

I've just seen a biplane flying over Chepstow, Wales near where I live. At first I thought it was a Bristol Fighter but it it had a distinctive engine like the Westland Wallace below. The plane I saw looked like it could be a Wallace. Anyone know if any are still flying and any ideas what it could have been if not a Wallace?

Probably the Fly Navy Heritage Trust's Fairey Swordfish, which was due to do a display at Rhyl today.

Thanks, that has to be it as the flight path on the link is over Chepstow and right time. But I was sure that the engine was exposed with no cowling around it. Can't believe I actually got to see a Stringbag.
